- NCAA. Kim Mulkey takes a shot at a successful NCAA coach in front of a college basketball
Flau'jae Johnson, the rising star of women's college basketball, has hit the big time with her latest project, a music video that no one saw coming. In "Came Out a Beast," the LSU player shows why she's on top, collaborating with the legendary Lil Wayne and her coach, Kim Mulkey. If anyone would have predicted a decade ago that an NCAA athlete would share the stage with Weezy and her coach in a music video, it would have seemed crazy. But this is the new face of today's college athlete, one who dominates both on the court and in the recording studio.
The video, directed by Terrius Mykel, opens with Mulkey diagramming a play, setting Flau'jae and her teammates up for an epic showdown. From there, Flau'jae takes the mic, honoring her late father, rapper Camoflauge, as she holds up her 2023 national championship trophy. "And I just won a natty, did it for my daddy," she raps with a force that shows she's destined for greatness. By her side, Lil Wayne brings his magnetic presence, making this video a true anthem of power and resilience.
The track is off her Best of Both Worlds EP, released in June, and Flau'jae couldn't be more grateful to those who ed her. The young rapper and athlete expressed her gratitude towards her coach, saying, "Having Coach Mulkey in the 'Came Out a Beast' video was special. She has always been by my side, both on and off the court, pushing me to do my best. Her means everything to me, so it was amazing to have him participate in this moment."
Flau'jae Johnson is redefining what it means to be an NCAA athlete. Not only is she one of the best players on the court, but she is also the most talented rapper on the circuit, combining her athletic prowess with a presence in music that is taking her to new heights. With more collaborations like this one, the world is seeing that Flau'jae has not only come out of the shadows, but has done so as a true beast.
