Flau'jae Taps Lil Wayne & LSU Head Coach Kim Mulkey For 'Came Out A Beast' Video

Flau'jae [Johnson]who is set to begin her junior season as an LSU Tiger and currently has it the most lucrative NIL deals in women's college basketballshe just dropped a video with her trainer and lil wayne. If you told us 10 years ago that today's college basketball player would be doing songs with Weezy and have her coach in her music videos, we'd have called you crazy, but that's the landscape for today's NCAA athlete.

Directed by Terrius Mykel, the video opens with LSU women's basketball coach Kim Mulkey planning a play for Flau'jae and her LSU teammates. She proceeds to leave and even calls out her pops, the late rapper Camouflage while holding the 2023 National Championship trophy as Wayne stands next to her. “And I just won a natty, I did it for my daddy/ They see my face, man, I'm on the paper/ Man, I'm one of them, you see the trophy/ You don't have to answer if you really know me,” he raps.

The piece appeared on her The best of both worlds EP which was released earlier this month in June and she really appreciated that Wayne, her band mates and her coach were able to appear in the video. In a press release, he had nice things to say about it all.

Of Wayne he said:
“Working with Lil Wayne on the 'Came Out A Beast' video was a dream come true. He is a legend in the game and to be able to work with him on this piece 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 basketball teammates, she said:
“Having my bandmates in the 'Came Out A Beast' video was a real moment for me. We're all in this together on and off the field, so bringing them into that part of my life was a natural fit. It's nice to show that connection in a different way, outside of basketball. I'm really grateful that he was a part of this moment with me.”

Of her coach, Kim Mulke, she said:
“Having Coach Mulkey in the 'Came Out A Beast' video was special. He was always 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 be a part of this moment. It just shows how much he believes in all of us, not just as players, but as people with our own dreams.”

Flau'jae can make a case that she is the best athlete rapper right now.
