Beauty and the Beast

**Beauty and the Beast** is Darius Ash in full protector mode. She’s the beauty, he’s the beast—but there’s no possessiveness in it. He trusts his woman to move how she wants, handle herself, and enjoy her space. As long as she’s good, he’s good. But if she ever needs him—or somebody crosses the line—they already know what time it is. Smooth, confident, and protective without doing too much, the record captures the kind of loyalty that doesn’t need to be loud to be understood.
