Global music icons Shakira and Burna Boy are officially joining forces for DAI DAI, the official song for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

The highly anticipated collaboration is set to arrive next Thursday and is already generating major excitement across both the music and football worlds. Bringing together Shakira’s legendary World Cup anthem legacy and Burna Boy’s globally celebrated Afrofusion sound, DAI DAI is expected to become one of the biggest international releases of the year.

Shakira is no stranger to FIFA World Cup history, having delivered iconic tournament records that became global cultural moments. With Burna Boy now joining the lineup for the 2026 edition, the collaboration also marks another major milestone for Afrobeats on the world stage.

Over the last few years, Burna Boy has continued expanding his global influence through sold-out stadium performances, international chart success, and major crossover collaborations. Being selected for the official FIFA World Cup soundtrack further highlights the worldwide reach of African music and Burna Boy’s position as one of its leading ambassadors.

The pairing of Latin pop energy and Afrofusion rhythms on DAI DAI is expected to create a vibrant global anthem capable of connecting fans across different cultures ahead of football’s biggest event.
