Albums of the Year 2024 // Artist & Designer Friends

Artwork by George Adamson

We tapped a few of our favorite graphic artists—friends who live at the intersection of music and design—to show us their year in music through their own unique lens. These are people who make the music world look as good as it sounds, and we’re endlessly grateful for their ability to elevate the whole experience. The lineup below is stacked with heavy hitters, each a master in their own right. If you’re smart, you’ll hit them up for collaborations or commissions and watch their talent transform whatever you’re working on. In an era where art is increasingly undermined by algorithms and supercomputers, standing behind genuine artisans has never mattered more.
