Flau’jae & NLE Choppa Team Up For Uber-Confident “AMF”

by

Flau’jae and her LSU Tigers are doing a good job defending their title so far in the March Madness tournament. The three seed has taken out each opponent, (14) Rice and (11) Middle Tennessee State, by double digits. Against the latter program, they wound up pulling away in quarters three and four, thanks in part to Louisiana State’s star guard. She posted 21 points, four rebounds, two assists, a steal, and a pair of blocks. Number four was also efficient, shooting 60% from the field, 50% from three, and 80% at the free throw line.

To help celebrate reaching the Sweet 16 again on Friday, Flau’jae decided to drop a new song “AMF.” However, this is not just a solo single, though. NLE Choppa, a first-time collaborator, joined her in the recording booth for this boastful banger. If you take a look at the lyrics, there could be a subtle shot toward Middle Tennessee State.

Listen To “AMF” By Flau’jae & NLE Choppa

“I walked in so it’s up, it ain’t my fault / Hella tears in the lobby, it ain’t my fault,” Flau’jae raps. This could be a subtle reference to the star player who fouled out in the third quarter after getting tangled up with Angel Reese. A video went viral where she got really upset walking back to the bench after picking up her fifth and final foul. So much so in fact, that she wound up crying as she had to watch on from the sideline the rest of the way. “AMF” could have been made before that happened, but it is all up for speculation.

What are your thoughts on this brand-new single, “AMF,” by Flau’jae and NLE Choppa? Do you think she can have a stable rap career regardless if she goes to the WNBA, why or why not? Is this one of her better songs as of late, why or why not? Do you think a new project is on the way soon? We would like to hear what you have to say, so be sure to leave your takes in the comments section.

Quotable Lyrics:

Hard, but I make it look easy
I’m in the lane on my own, ain’t nobody I’m needin’
Rollin’ window, wavin’ bye to the haters while I’m speedin’
Tell ’em ”Catch up, get up”, I hurt that core like a sit up
Ain’t got time for nobody, maine, that’s what the rich for
Foot on they neck, make ’em hiccup, they was sick, now they sicker

Flau’jae Johnson’s Brother Clowned For Jumping On The Court Amid LSU & South Carolina Brawl

by

Flau’jae Johnson and the LSU Tigers were looking to do big things on Sunday as they played in the SEC finals. Overall, South Carolina came into the game undefeated and there was a sense that it would be a difficult game for the Tigers. In the end, that proved to be true as they lost the match 79-72. South Carolina came through with the SEC title and now, they get to go into March Madness with a huge advantage. However, the game wasn’t historic for the on-court product. Instead, it was the end-of-game fight that fans remember.

As we reported already, Flau’jae Johnson and Kamilla Cardoso got into it close to the end of the game. Johnson was shoved to the ground by Cardoso and it led to a bit of a brawl on the floor. Players had to be broken up and there were even some ejections that took place. However, the star of the entire scuffle was Flau’jae’s brother. In the footage below, you can see him spring into action to defend his sister. Once he made it to the floor, he realized he made a big mistake and was eventually taken away in handcuffs.

Flau’jae Johnson Vs. South Carolina

Following this event, Johnson was clowned on Twitter for his actions. After all, he is a grown man who jumped on the floor to go after college-aged women. It wasn’t the greatest look, and fans couldn’t help but point that out online. Not to mention, with the Tigers losing, it was simply insult to injury. Although, there were definitely some who appreciated Flau’jae’s brother for being a “real one” in this situation. It is clear that he has a lot of love for his sister, and he didn’t want her to be in a bad spot. Hopefully, he doesn’t do this again during March Madness.

Twitter Gets Some Jokes Off

Let us know what you thought about this entire situation, in the comments section down below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for more news and updates from around the sports world. We will continue to keep you informed on all of your favorite athletes.

Flau'jae Releases Surprise Collab Project With Babywave 

Flau’jae is a beast on the basketball court… and now she’s taking over the rap game!

Flaujae Photos 3

Clocking in at four tracks, 4 Wave is produced by Babywave, who has worked with artists such as Gunna, Quavo, Takeoff, and Young Thug. Babywave also co-produced Young Thug & Gunna’s “Ski” which became a viral sensation, boasting over 54 million views on YouTube and counting.

Flau’jae says, “We’re the best duo and we are both so young. We both get it and we’re trying to find new sounds, and make new waves.”

In creating 4 Wave, the chemistry between Flau’jae and Babywave is reminiscent of one of Hip-Hop’s hardest duos, Future and 21 Savage, with the latter producing the former’s biggest hits. It’s also comparable to Kobe and Shaq in basketball, with Flau’jae constantly breaking down barriers on and off the court. 

“4 Wave Freestyle,” the standout single from the project, is brought to life by an exciting video directed by 20kVisuals. Filmed in the sun-drenched streets of Miami, the video showcases Flaujae’s presence as she cruises on luxurious yachts and zips through the city in sleek, exotic cars, celebrating her hard-earned success. 

Check out the visual below:

Flau’jae Is Coming For The Throne On “First Person Shooter” Freestyle

by

Basketball and hip-hop go together like peanut butter and jelly. Both cultures complement each other so well and it is why a good deal of hoopers also rap on the side. What is really cool about it is that a fair number of them can actually spit. We have seen Damian Lillard build a successful side hustle with a handful of records to his credit. You also have others like Shaq, and Lonzo Ball to add to that list as well. However, there are not as many female players that pen bars. One who does and can forge a career is Flau’jae.

Flau’jae (Johnson) is currently attending Louisiana State University (LSU) and is a starting guard for the Tigers. She is having a great sophomore season. Flau’jae is averaging 13 points, and five assists on nearly 50% shooting for the 13th-best team in the country. While she is killing it on the basketball court, she is also setting the microphone on fire.

Listen To “First Person Shooter (FlauMix)” By Flau’jae

She has been putting out music since 2017 and over the past year or so, Flau’jae has been hitting her stride. In July 2023, she put out her debut project 4 My Fans with no features. The 20-year-old has a lot of ambition and wants to work with the best of the best, including J. Cole. While she does not have that collaboration yet, she did just drop a freestyle over his and Drake’s smash hit “First Person Shooter.” It is a much shorter version of the original, clocking in at the 1:47 mark. But, there are plenty of catchy and witty one-liners thrown in. Definitely do not be afraid to give this a shot (pun intended).

What are your thoughts on this brand-new single, “First Person Shooter (FlauMix),” by Flau’jae? Is this the best freestyle she has ever put out? Should she declare for the WNBA Draft and rap, or stick to just one career? Do you think an album will be coming sometime this year? We would like to hear what you have to say about all of this. With that in mind, be sure to leave all of your hottest takes in the comments section below. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding Flau’jae.

Top 23 of 2023: Angel Reese & Flau’Jae Johnson Rewrite The Narrative of Women’s College Basketball

by

Angel Reese and Flau’Jae Johnson have emerged as major game-changers in the world of women’s college basketball. As the Top 23 of 2023 countdown, approaches No. 17, their impact on the sport cannot be overlooked. 

17. Angel Reese & Flau’Jae Change The Game

Angel Reese made headlines when she joined forces with Reebok in a groundbreaking NIL partnership. 

The LSU star became one of the notable athletes who monetized her name and brand while still playing at the collegiate level, marking a significant shift in women’s college basketball. In addition, the success of Flau’Jae Johnson garnered her a lucrative Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) deal, valued at up to $1.1 million.

Flau’Jae Johnson’s rise to prominence in women’s college basketball reached new heights when she caught the attention of iconic rapper Lil Wayne. The Louisiana State University basketball star had been praised by Lil Wayne, who expressed his desire to collaborate with her. Their paths finally crossed at the 2023 Essence Festival, where Flau’Jae’s talent and passion for basketball and music were celebrated. 

Angel Reese and Flau’Jae Johnson showcased their marketability and appeal beyond the basketball court when they starred in Amazon‘s latest commercial titled “Dormz.” The commercial featured the college athletes flaunting their dorm rooms and Amazon-powered accessories.

Do Companies Hold Athletes Accountable For Poor Academic Performance?

by

Angel Reese

Louisiana State University basketball star Angel Reese is facing backlash and speculation surrounding her absence from the team. Fans are questioning whether her academic performance may be the cause, raising concerns about the accountability of athletes in brand deals. 

‘2.0 Or Less GPA’?

Reese’s absence from the LSU basketball team following her benching in a game against Kent State on Nov. 14 has sparked rumors about her academic performance. 

Speculation arose after comments made by Reese’s mother and a teammate’s mother on social media. Flau’jae Johnson’s mother commented on her Instagram story on Nov. 17, suggesting Reese makes grammar errors due to a low GPA. 

“You definitely know about grammar errors when your daughter has a 2.0 or less GPA,” Flau’jae mother commented on her Instagram story on November 17.

Users reacted to the claims of Reese allegedly having a low GPA. 

One user named @2techie commented, “Everybody knows student athletes don’t go to class ,” another user named @yarneprenuer_ commented “this is embarrassing. As a student athlete she knows better.”  

‘Please Don’t Believe Everything You Read’

The reason for Reese’s absence is not confirmed, but Reese posted on Twitter (X) a statement, saying, “Please don’t believe everything you read,” on November 19. 

However, no confirmation has been given regarding the reason for her absence or the validity of the low GPA allegations. It remains uncertain if any of her NIL(Name Image Likeness) deals, including Reebok, McDonald’s, Raising Canes, Wingstop, and others, will cut ties based on academic performance.

The Requirements

The NCAA requires Division I student-athletes to maintain a minimum GPA of 2.3 to remain eligible. 

Failure to meet this academic requirement can result in an athlete becoming academically ineligible to represent their institution in intercollegiate athletics competitions. NCAA rules dictate that academics also play a crucial role in preserving eligibility for NIL deals.

Student-athletes need to understand that NCAA NIL rules do not supersede state, college/university, or conference-specific rules. Therefore, athletes must familiarize themselves with the guidelines of their respective states, colleges, and conferences to ensure compliance. 

Failure to meet academic standards or remaining permanently ineligible due to poor academic performance can lead to the loss of NIL deals.

‘Dormz’

In July 2023,  Angel Reese was featured in a commercial for Amazon with her LSU teammate Flau’jae Johnson. The commercial was titled “Dormz,” and featured the athletes showcasing their dorm rooms and Amazon accessories. 

DaBaby Reveals How He Lost $200M

Similar to Angel Reese’s potential repercussions, DaBaby experienced financial losses in brand deals over contentious remarks he made at Rolling Loud in 2021. In an interview on the Club Shay Shay podcast, DaBaby revealed that he lost a potential $200 million in endorsements due to his controversial comments during his performance.
