Rod Wave is taking a stand against Grizzly Touring, his former promoter, in a heated $27 million dispute over his 'Last Lap' tour. The singer claims Grizzly is trying to force him into renegotiating their partnership and has filed a countersuit. In a statement, Rod Wave's attorney, James Sammataro, described the demand to perform under the existing contract as 'indentured servitude.' 'Had it not grossly mismanaged the Last Lap tour, by among other things, repeatedly changing the tour schedule and canceling concerts at the last minute, the tour would have been completed as intended,' Rod Wave said in a statement. The dispute revolves around the 'Last Lap' tour, which was originally slated for late 2023 but was postponed into 2025. Rod Wave is now set to embark on his 'Redemption Experience' tour, a massive North American headline tour kicking off December 7 in Los Angeles and wrapping January 2 in Miami. The tour comes after Rod Wave released his latest single, 'Leavin,' which showcases his signature blend of pain and poetry. The emotionally charged record finds the singer blending soul and vulnerability, cementing his reputation as one of music's most authentic voices. Rod Wave remains committed to delivering first-class concerts that his fans expect – and deserve. Grizzly Touring's lawsuit is baseless and an unfortunate extension of its prior failed attempts to trap Rod Wave into an exclusive arrangement.
