R&B singer and rapper Rod Wave was arrested in metro Atlanta on drug and weapon charges. The arrest came on the same day that Wave, real name Rodarius Green, nabbed his first Grammy nomination.
Rolling Stone, citing jail records, reported the 27-year-old was booked into the Fulton County Jail on Friday. Charges include felony possession of a firearm or knife, possession of a Schedule II and Schedule V controlled substance, and reckless driving.

A mugshot of the seemingly nonplussed R&B singer was widely circulated on social media.
Wave was granted bail a day after his arrest.
