LSU star Flau'jae Johnson creates hype with two new exciting announcements for her fans

Flau'jae Johnson, a standout player who helped LSU defend its NCAA basketball title last year, is making waves in the music industry. She has secured a distribution deal with Roc Nation and recently collaborated with Lil Wayne. Balancing her dual careers in basketball and music, Johnson has openly shared that she cannot choose between the two.

In an interview with Overtime WBB, Johnson spoke about releasing new music and a podcast.

"Yeah, I got a podcast coming out real soon," Johnson said. "And I got my project, 'Best of Both Worlds,' it dropped in June. Super soon [podcast will come]."

When asked about any new elements in her upcoming album, Johnson said:

"Yeah, it's a lot of different kinds of music, but I'm excited for it. It's a lot of features. It's just different. It's like a new four."

Her music video for "Love Is Blind" was released in March. Despite her busy schedule, Johnson has performed rap shows within 24 hours of game practices.

According to The New York Times, Johnson's recording studio is at her apartment. She writes lyrics on flights to games and records music in her free time.

LSU Lady Tigers guard Flau'jae Johnson (4) forward Angel Reese (10) and guard Hailey Van Lith (11) take questions from the media at MVP Arena, Sunday, March 31, 2024 in Albany, N.Y.

LSU’s star guard, Flau'jae Johnson, sporting jersey No. 4, had an outstanding sophomore season and earned spots on the 2024 Second Team All-SEC and the 2024 Albany 2 All-Region Team.

Johnson played in 36 games, starting 34, and delivered impressive averages: 14.9 points, 5.5 rebounds, 2.5 assists, 2.1 steals and 1.0 blocks per game. Notably, she scored over 20 points in six of LSU’s final eight games, including the last three games of the NCAA Tournament.

Beyond the court, Johnson is also a thriving businesswoman. In an appearance on The Stephen A. Smith Show, she expressed her dedication to building a strong business brand.

“The money is a blessing, don’t get me wrong,” she said. “I got to change my family’s life and invest in everything. But the thing for me is more so the accountability and building that business brand and trust.”

Johnson emphasized the importance of professionalism and commitment.

"If you promote something and you do everything the way you’re supposed to do it, you’re gonna get more and more deals and more and more good karma," Johnson said. "So for me it’s handling my business and being a businesswoman. Not playing with people’s time."

Many of her lucrative partnerships with major brands like Powerade, Apple and Amazon have been bolstered by her basketball success.
