50 Cent

I hung this in my office and the cigar smoke curling up next to his face is what really sells the mood. Black-and-white was the right call here, it feels like an old jazz album cover. Sitting at the desk like that, he looks deep in thought rather than performing for the camera.

The black-and-white contrast is striking, and the desk setting gives it a quiet, thoughtful feel I didn't expect from a hip-hop portrait. Hung it in my home office and it's easily the most commented-on piece I own.

The cigar smoke curling in the black-and-white shot gives it such a moody, old-school feel that I hung it in my office right away. 50 Cent looks genuinely deep in thought at that desk, not posed at all. Print quality is sharp, no blur, arrived rolled in a sturdy tube.
