Flau’jae [Johnson], who’s about to start her junior season as an LSU Tiger and currently has the most lucrative NIL deals in women’s college basketball, just dropped a video with both her head coach and Lil Wayne. If you told us 10 years ago that a current college basketball player would be doing songs with Weezy and had her coach all up in her music videos, we’d call you crazy, but that’s the landscape for today’s NCAA athlete.

Directed by Terrius Mykel, the video starts off with LSU women’s basketball head coach Kim Mulkey drawing up a play for Flau’jae and her LSU teammates in a huddle. She proceeds to go off and even shouts out her pops, late rapper Camoflauge while holding her 2023 National Championship trophy as Wayne stands next to her. “And I just won a natty, did it for my daddy/ They seein’ my face, man, I’m in the paper/ Man, I’m one of them ones, you see thе trophy/ You don’t gotta respond if you really know me,” she raps.

The track appeared on her Best of Both Worlds EP that she released earlier this month in June and she greatly appreciated that Wayne, her teammates, and her coach were able to show up for the video. In a press release, she had nice things to say about them all.
Of Wayne, she said:“Working with Lil Wayne on the ‘Came Out A Beast’ video was a dream come true. He’s a legend in the game, and being able to collaborate with him on this track was surreal. The energy on set was incredible, and we both brought that fire to the video. This is just the beginning, and I’m excited for everyone to see what we’ve created.”
Of her LSU women’s basketball teammates, she said:“Having my teammates in the ‘Came Out A Beast’ video was a real moment for me. We’re all grinding together on and off the court, so bringing them into this part of my life felt natural. It’s cool to show that connection in a different way, outside of basketball. I’m really thankful they were a part of this moment with me.”
Of her head coach Kim Mulke, she said:“Having Coach Mulkey in the ‘Came Out A Beast’ video was special. She’s always been in my corner, both on and off the court, pushing me to be my best. Her support means everything to me, so it was amazing to have her be part of this moment. It just shows how much she believes in all of us, not just as players, but as individuals with our own dreams.”
Flau’jae can make the case that she’s the best athlete rapper out right now.
