TOGETHXR releases docuseries following LSU commit, hip-hop star Flau’Jae Johnson
TOGETHXR has released the second season of FENOM, a docuseris which follows LSU women’s basketball commit Flau’Jae Johnson.
The daughter of the late rapper Camouflage, he was shot to death six months before Johnson was born. His killing remains unsolved.
She has continued to carry on her father’s legacy, though. At the age of 12, she was cast in Lifetime’s “The Rap Game,” a show that pitted five young artists against each other. She has also been on “America’s Got Talent” and has signed on to Jay-Z’s Roc Nation label.
Johnson is one of the top-ranked recruits in the 2022 class, too. She was a McDonald’s All-American this past season, and the 5-foot-10 guard will play for Kim Mulkey next season. During her time at Sprayberry High in Marietta, Georgia, she broke countless records, including the school’s all-time scoring regard, regardless of gender.
The TOGETHXR docuseries follows the day-to-day life of Johnson in Savannah, Georgia, including an inside look in her final year of high school and the leadup to college. The series also delves into her father’s death and legacy.
Mulkey believes Johnson has the ability to become one of the biggest figures of the Name, Image and Likeness era. UConn star Paige Bueckers has signed deals with Gatorade and is education platform Chegg. But Flau’Jae Johnson is a rising star both in basketball and hip-hop. Her Instagram has north of 700,000 followers, and as a rapper, she already has 124,000 subscribers on YouTube.
“The timing has really worked out perfectly for me,” Johnson told the Washington Post. “I’m going to push my basketball and my business and my music all at the same time.”
