CD and cover for World Music Radio

Maragsâ by Jad Maza is prominently used in the album art, booklet, and promotional materials for Jon Batiste's 2023 album World Music Radio. The typeface is paired with a maximalist, retrofuturistic design approach befitting the album's concept—an interstellar pop radio host, Billy Bob Bo Bob, showcasing the music of Earth.
