Who is Flau'jae Johnson?
Johnson, 19, is from Savannah, Ga., and is one of the Peach State's youngest female hip-hop ambassadors.
She's following in the footsteps of her late father Jason Johnson, also known by his rap pseudonym Camoflauge, who was shot just over five months before she was born.
She leads a double-life with careers as both a rapper and a baller.
In high school, she was listed as a four-star recruit and was the first McDonald's All-American to be recruited to the Lady Tigers' program by Kim Mulkey. She was the only girl to play in the Iverson Classic and even had her legacy No. 4 jersey retired at her alma mater Sprayberry High School when she set the school-record for career points with over 1,615.
She is a freshman at LSU now, having announced her commitment with the release of another original song, titled "All Falls Down," accompanied by a music video that feature Baton Rouge's own Lil Boosie.
Johnson started every game since she joined the roster, averaging 11 points, 5.9 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.2 steals per game. She's contributed to the Tigers' 34-2 record in Mulkey's second year, fitting right in with the likes and talents of Alexis Morris and Angel Reese and helping the Tigers to their first ever NCAA national championship title.

Her name, image and likeness (NIL) deals have only boosted her credentials, as she's currently ranked the fourth-highest valued women's basketball player at $669,000 annually — she trails Miami's Cavinder twins in first and second and UConn's Paige Bueckers in third, according to On3.

Flau'jae Johnson rap career
Johnson started rapping when she was in middle school and now has 17,489 monthly listeners on Spotify, 144,000 subscribers on YouTube and a deal with Jay-Z's label Roc Nation.
She debuted her talents on season three of "The Rap Game" at age 13. The show was executive produced by Queen Latifah and Jermaine Dupri.
At age 14, she competed in season 13 of "America's Got Talent," where she auditioned in Episode 1 with an original song titled "Guns Down," in reference to her father's untimely death.
She was sent through to judge cuts (season 13, episode 10), where she rapped yet another original song titled "I Can't Lose," the title proving to be true after she earned herself the golden buzzer and four standing ovations.
Her golden buzzer act was one of nine total that season.
She was eliminated in the quarterfinals (season 13, episode 11) when her original song titled "Letdown" literally let her down and didn't earn her enough votes to advance.
She tried her luck a third time on "America's Got Talent: All-Stars" in the preliminaries (episode 6), where she rapped "Ready or Not" by Lauryn Hill.
Sadly, the Superfans were not ready for her, and she again didn't earn enough votes to enter the night's top three and advance.
She now has over a dozen hits, her first release in 2017 titled "Can You Hear Me Now" and her latest release in January 2023 titled "Big 4."
Her profile only figures to grow after she helped lead LSU to the national title, which culminated in "Big 4" playing over the speakers at American Airlines Arena as the Tigers celebrated their win.

Lil Wayne, who was a guest star on "The Bird and Taurasi Show" during LSU's Final Four matchup, revealed he and Johnson had previously spoken. And that they're going to connect musically soon.
“That’s shoutout to Miss Kim [Mulkey] too. Because Kim told me, ‘you must do something with my girl Flau’jae.’ I was like ‘say less,'" the rap legend said.

Her goal? To win an NCAA title and a Grammy by the time she finishes college. One year down, and she's already halfway there.
