Author's note

B Kidnap by Borna Rayaneh is a free angular Arabic display font with a stripped-down, almost cut-paper feel. The letters look heavy, compact, and sharply geometric, balancing blunt outer shapes with small carved openings that give the design a tense, poster-like rhythm.

That makes it a natural fit for music flyers, streetwear graphics, title cards, zines, and compact branding where a free font needs an assertive Arabic voice. It works best in short lines and bold moments - cover lines, wordmarks, and quick headline hits - because the dense shapes and hard corners give even a brief phrase a locked-in, graphic presence.
