Johnson first released "Came Out A Beast" on her debut EP, "Best of Both Worlds," in June. On Aug. 26, a music video was released, featuring actors and actresses portraying LSU icons like Shaquille O'Neal, Heisman Trophy winner Joe Burrow and Olympic gold medalist Sha'Carri Richardson. The video also featured LSU coach Kim Mulkey and some of her teammates.

Meanwhile, Johnson has maintained that playing basketball is the foundation of her career.

“This is what I always tell people,” she said on her podcast, 'The Best of Both Worlds with Flau’jae.' “They think, ‘Oh my gosh, you’re getting all these NIL deals. You’re getting all this money.’ But if I wasn’t doing somewhat good on the court, that wouldn’t be a thing. You focus on that, and then everything else just seems to fall in line.”

Meanwhile, the Georgia-born basketball star will be in action as the Tigers take on Stanford on Friday.
