This DPS features rapper 50 Cent in a full body shot wearing jewelry and chains reflecting the hip hop genre. He has a serious facial expression and is sitting on a gym bench in an unusual way, symbolizing that he does what he wants. The background shows what is going on in the gym to provide context. A headline and quote are included to catch the audience's eye and let them know what they will read about. Tattoos, watches and clothing indicate themes of time, hip hop culture and mood that relate to the artist and message of the content.
