Shakira and Burna Boy launch FIFA World Cup 2026 anthem 'Dai Dai'
Colombian singer Shakira and Nigerian artist Burna Boy released "Dai Dai", the official song for the FIFA World Cup 2026. The music video, filmed in Miami, features a roster of football stars including Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappé, Erling Haaland and others, and highlights the Ghetto Kids Uganda NGO. The track is tied to the FIFA Global Citizen Education Fund, which aims to raise $100 million for education and sport programs for underserved children. Shakira will donate her royalties and $1 from each ticket of her upcoming tour, while Sony Music will match the first $250,000 raised.
Within 24 hours the video amassed millions of views, quickly becoming one of the most‑watched YouTube releases and prompting fans to compare its impact to Shakira’s earlier World Cup hit "Waka Waka". The song’s global exposure reinforces the cultural link between the 2026 tournament and the artists’ international fan bases.
