Flau’jae Johnson is a star. Her recent partnership with JBL is the latest in a line of incredible endorsements the freshman phenom has received. It is also one of the first that Johnson has gotten in the music industry.

The partnership comes in the midst of March Madness, where Johnson’s LSU Tigers have made it to the championship game. The SEC Freshman of the Year, Johnson is averaging 6.2 points, 5.6 rebounds, and 2.2 assists per game in the tournament.

”It’s been a blessing that I’ve been able to work with the ultimate best at such an early stage in my career,” Johnson said. “I have a coach that pushes me to be a great basketball player and a father who inspired me to be a fearless rapper.”
