A color photograph of The Beatnuts. From left to right are Psycho Les, Fashion, Rick Man, and Juju Gigante. Les wears a light grey hoodie, with the hood pulled up over a black baseball cap with a gold crown logo on the front. He is gesturing with his proper left hand in front of the camera; his fingers are out of focus. Next to Les, Fashion wears a grey sweatshirt and black White Sox baseball cap. He has a heart-shaped ring on his pink and holds his hands together in front of him. Rick Man wears a dark colored hooded sweatshirt. Juju Gigante wears a white guayabera style shirt and black sunglasses. The background behind them is blue and black and a purple effect appears across the photograph, especially across the foreheads of Rick Man and Gigante, and across the shoulders of the man next to Les.
