Lil Wayne Meets LSU Hoops Star Flau’jae Johnson, Rap Collab In Works

It finally happened … after months of trying to link up, Lil Wayne got to meet LSU hoops star Flau’jae Johnson — and now, TMZ Sports has learned the two are getting to work on a rap collab!!

The “A Milli” spitter and the Tigers guard got to see each other face-to-face for the first time in New Orleans on Sunday … after Weezy’s surprise performance at the ESSENCE Festival.

The two shared a big hug backstage … and then they posed for a couple pics. They got to exchange some quick words too — before Wayne had to get to his other obligations.

But, sources close to Weezy tell us following their connection … they’ve now put the wheels in motion on a new song — with plans to get things started on it ASAP.

Of course, Wayne has been trying to get this all going since April … when he said on ESPN during the women’s NCAA tournament that he wanted to connect with Johnson — an aspiring rapper who’s signed to Roc Nation.

At the time, Johnson was stoked about the Wayne shoutout … tweeting, “Imagine Winning A National Championship Your FRESHMAN Year! Then Getting A Lil Wayne Feature Right After ??! What is life.”
