Rising LSU star and rapper Flau’jae Johnson is making headlines again — but this time, it’s not for a buzzer-beater or a no-look assist. In her latest rap track, Flau’jae name-drops none other than WNBA sensation Caitlin Clark, and fans are eating it up.

The bold reference has already gone viral, blending two worlds that rarely collide: high-level college basketball and hip-hop swagger. It’s just more proof that women’s basketball is having a cultural moment, and Flau’jae is right at the center of it.

Music Meets Hoops

Flau’jae isn’t your average student-athlete. Signed to Roc Nation, she’s balancing Division I basketball with a legitimate rap career. Her music often references sports, motivation, and identity — and this Clark line just pushed her buzz even higher.

“I’m just speaking truth and showing love to hoopers who inspire, just like me,” Flau’jae said in a follow-up post.
