Product Details

Jon Batiste spent years as the bandleader and musical director of *The Late Show with Stephen Colbert*, building a reputation as one of the most versatile and technically gifted musicians of his generation, rooted equally in New Orleans jazz tradition and contemporary pop. *World Music Radio* channels that restless eclecticism into a singular vision, drawing on Batiste's classical training, his Mardi Gras Indian heritage, and a genuine curiosity about how music connects people across borders and cultures.


"World Music Radio is the new musical transmission from GRAMMY® and Oscar® winner Jon Batiste, following his acclaimed hit record WE ARE.

This concept album stars Batiste as interstellar traveling griot/DJ Billy Bob Bo Bob who examines popular music from around the globe on a radio broadcast to the rest of the universe - begging the question, isn’t all music, world music?

World Music Radio sees Batiste reach new artistic heights with collaborators Jon Bellion, J.I.D, Camilo, NewJeans and others."
