The world belongs to the enigmatic woman seen preparing for a big evening in a totally baller mansion with a pool and all. She moves with a deliberate, coiled intensity, not unlike the East Asian dragon tat that covers half her back. She tries on heels, outfits, jewelry for whoever that lucky guy is, relaxing in the chair.
But not so fast. Traditionally, the dragon is a symbol of wisdom, strength, power, and prosperity. It makes sense once she moves on to forging a passport on her laptop. And all that money she’s rolling around on all scantily clad in that giant bed? Might want to check that open, empty safe in the wall. We’ve underestimated her: she’s true to the title, she was never playing. Oh, and somebody better check on that guy who’s definitely not having the evening he planned on. Watch Eddie Grand turn expectations on their head with his killer music video for “SLAY.”
