Rod Wave Tells NBA YoungBoy: We Going Stadium — Tampa Bay Tease

Rod Wave told Akademiks he already pitched NBA YoungBoy a stadium tour ("I told yb we going stadium"). Hot97 Sep 28 + HNHH Sep 27. CONFIRMED statement; tour itself Developing/no dates. T3 Tampa Bay / St. Pete.

St. Pete / Tampa Bay's Rod Wave answered DJ Akademiks on X early Sunday, Sep 27 2026, after Akademiks floated a YB x Rod Wave tour and album. Rod Wave wrote: "I told yb we going stadium." Hot97 (Bryson "Boom" Paul) published the pickup Mon Sep 28 at 9:00 AM; HotNewHipHop (Gabriel Bras Nevares) carried the Sep 27 beat.

The statement is CONFIRMED — Rod Wave's own reply. No stadium dates, promoters, or YoungBoy confirmation have been announced. HNHH notes YoungBoy is living overseas, which could complicate logistics; TrapHop frames the joint stadium run as a TEASE / Developing, not a booked tour.

Regional angle: Rod Wave is the Florida named-market voice (St. Petersburg / Tampa Bay). Searchable names: Rod Wave, NBA YoungBoy, Akademiks, Tampa Bay, stadium tour. Score ~87 HOT. Sources: Hot97 Sep 28 + HotNewHipHop Sep 27.
