Singles from Pray 4 Love

Pray 4 Love is the second studio album by American rapper and singer Rod Wave. It was released on April 3, 2020, through Alamo Records. The album contains one collaboration featuring American rapper ATR Son Son on the track "Rags2Riches". A deluxe edition was released on August 7, 2020, featuring Yo Gotti and Lil Baby, the latter on the remix of "Rags2Riches".[1] Twelve of the album's tracks charted on the Billboard Hot 100, with "Rags2Riches" becoming Rod Wave's highest-charting song at the time, peaking at number 12.[2] Music videos were released for all of the album's singles.[3]

Background

The rapper revealed that the album was created in only one month.[4] In an interview with Apple Music, the rapper explained the process of making music, saying that it "helps me talk about [my eating problems]. I don't regret going through none of it, because if it hadn't went down like that, 'Heart on Ice' wouldn't have even been a song. It would have been 'Wrist on Ice'".[5] Generally, he wanted the album listeners to feel like him instead of "pinpoint just one" message.[4]
