Flau’jae – Remember When

Flau’jae was never acquainted with her father. He was fatally shot prior to her birth. In tribute to him, she produces her finest work to date in “Remember When.”

The track expresses themes of grief, legacy, and resilience via unfiltered lyrics and emotional depth. Flau’jae utilises her voice as a means of confronting and dealing with inherited trauma and the intricate emotions associated with growing up in her father’s dominant presence. Each bar represents the challenge of living up to a name associated with tragedy while working to create her own identity.

As the music intensifies, Flau’jae connects her past and current life. She follows lessons that were left behind. The song can serve as a resource for those dealing with comparable trauma and grief.

She intertwines challenges with her drive, reminiscing about her humble origins, observing that “We used to drive Toyotas, now everything is so unfamiliar,” before asserting, “I don’t just desire a Grammy, I want an Oscar.” Each line is carefully crafted, yet every one lands with pinpoint accuracy.

The song delves into her most profound emotional scars and the resilience that propelled her to success. This is a deeply personal achievement that also serves as a collective reflection of a generation’s values, struggling with sorrow, drive, and a strong sense of Southern identity.

Flau’jae is continually adding to her lasting reputation. Recently, she embarked on a tour with BossMan Dlow, participated in the 2025 BET Celebrity Basketball Game, and is featured in ESPN’s Full Court Press, which showcases the lives of elite women’s college basketball players.

She reiterates her dedication to authenticity with the February release of “Flau & B,” preceded by “Remember When.” As a lyricist and athlete, Flau’jae continues to be a forceful voice driven by a strong sense of purpose.
