Recalling NCAA Championship Win With Angel Reese, Flau’jae Johnson Thanks $5 Million Worth Rapper for Wholesome Favor

A year back, the Louisiana State University women’s basketball team clinched their first NCAA title in the program’s history under the leadership of Angel Reese, accompanied by Flau’jae Johnson’s splendid contributions which paved the way to LSU’s first NCAA championship. This historic victory not only elevated Johnson’s status in the sport but also boosted her career as a hip-hop artist, leading to collaborations with other rappers. And recently, Johnson expressed her gratitude to an American rapper for a rather special favor.

On her podcast, Flau’jae Johnson said that rapper NLE Choppa asked her to feature in his music video following her NCAA triumph with LSU. “After we won the championship, he came out with a song called Champions. He came to me and was like I want you and Angel in the video,” Johnson said via Best of Both Worlds with Flau’jae. 

During the episode, Johnson expressed heartfelt gratitude to rapper NLE Choppa for the favor, she said, “He didn’t really have to reach out and do everything that he did but he reached out. He just showed so much love and he didn’t even have to do any of that. If you all know how hard it is to get artists to support you and literally stand on their word. It’s super rare.”

She further opened up about his relationship with Choppa and told more about the support and motivation that Choppa gives. She said that Choppa was there at the Iowa game and he motivated her by saying “you got to lose to know how to win”. This is the kind of bond that Johnson shares with Choppa where he has supported her in tough times.

Johnson’s touching acknowledgment of Choppa sets the tone for a deeper exploration of their partnership. Let’s look at the instances where the two rappers have appeared together.

Flau’jae Johnson’s latest track ‘AMF (Ain’t My Fault)’ also includes a feature by NLE Choppa. The song released in March of this year showcases her achievements both in the realm of sports and beyond. 

The second-year guard has collaborated with other hip-hop icons like Lil Wayne also, balancing her music career with efforts to aid LSU in defending their NCAA basketball title.
