This is a image from 50 cents album cover, he is represented as a urban gangster, this is shown from what he is wearing. He is wearing a necklace and a hate, If we signified those objects the necklace implies his religion and the hat implies he is urban. The connotation of this is the white background with patterns on it, he is trying to imply he is a true artist, the white background against him and the clothes he is wearing emphasises him and his body more. The lighting on his chest brings out his body more, his body is also emphasised more by the camera angle, the angle is a low angle making him look bigger and significant. The binary opposition is shown with his religious necklace however on the side of the image it says 'The Massacre' this suggests there are two sides to him.
