Why did Rod Wave not drop his album ‘Beautiful Mind’?

Rod Wave has not publicly revealed why the album has not been released yet, although fans have speculated that the delay could be in part due to his arrest, and the later dismissal of those charges, in May.

The rapper was initially arrested on a felony charge of battery by strangulation – regarding accusations made by his ex-girlfriend.

But the case was dropped two weeks later as his attorney described the alleged incident as a “misunderstanding”.

At the time, Rod Wave’s attorney, Bradford Cohen, told Rolling Stone: “This case was a misunderstanding between a girlfriend and boyfriend.

“That misunderstanding resulted in Mr. Green’s arrest.”

However, as news filtered through that the promised LP was unlikely to meet it’s deadline, music lovers expressed their disappointment on Twitter.

One wrote: “Rod Wave really hurt me not dropping that album yet, welp the bridge I go.”
