Image analysis.

Paolo's eyes are facing downwards and are in the middle third of the image which would suggest that he has something to hide which acts as a hook to the audience. The lighting of the image is pretty natural- coming in from the end of the tunnel, however the image as a whole is quite dark which anchors the subjects eye line. His costume is simple and there's nothing too extravagant about the location either which allows all of the attention to be on the subject. It is a medium close up with the subject edging to the left third of the page, this conveys the significance of the artist.

The subjects costume and the background of the image contrast with his skin colour- this emphasizes the importance of him and his black rap genre of music. His eye line is central in the top third of the frame and they are looking down upon us, this would suggest he is of importance. His pose is quite threatening without being agressive- his head is tilted backwards and his hands are in his pockets, this morrors the genre of music of which he is associated with.
