Rod Wave Just Passed Kodak & XXXTentacion To Become The Most Certified Rapper EVER From Florida

Rod Wave just made history — he's officially the most RIAA certified rapper to EVER come out of Florida, passing both Kodak Black and XXXTentacion in total certifications. And while that crown is heavy, Rod didn't keep the credit for himself. In this clip, he pays real homage to Kodak Black, calling him the one who "wrote the blueprint" for hustlers like him coming up in Florida. Rod admits he didn't even believe making it out was possible until he watched Yak do it first — that's respect, not politics. From soul-trap pain anthems to back-to-back platinum plaques, Rod Wave has quietly built one of the deepest certification catalogs in the game, and now the numbers put him at the top of Florida's all-time list. But the debate isn't over — with legends like Kodak Black and XXXTentacion holding down Florida's legacy, the conversation about the Sunshine State's true GOAT just got a whole lot harder to settle. Is Rod Wave the greatest to ever do it out of Florida, or do Kodak and X still hold the crown?
