Shakira and Burna Boy Release FIFA World Cup 2026 Anthem “Dai Dai”
Global music sensations Shakira and Burna Boy have officially dropped the highly anticipated music video for their new collaboration “Dai Dai,” the official anthem of the FIFA World Cup 2026.
Packed with star power, energy, and football passion, the visually stunning video brings together music, sport, and global culture in one vibrant celebration ahead of football’s biggest tournament. Directed by acclaimed music video director Hannah Lux Davis and filmed in Miami, the project features appearances from some of the world’s biggest football stars, including Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappé, Erling Haaland, Harry Kane, and Christian Pulisic.
The song also supports an important global cause. “Dai Dai” directly promotes the FIFA Global Citizen Education Fund, an initiative focused on expanding access to education and creating opportunities for children around the world.
Shakira, who has become closely associated with FIFA anthems after global hits like “Waka Waka” and “La La La,” once again brings her signature international sound and performance style to the football stage. Burna Boy adds his powerful Afro-fusion energy to the track, creating a dynamic collaboration designed to unite fans across continents ahead of the 2026 tournament.
One of the emotional highlights of the music video is the inclusion of Uganda’s famous Ghetto Kids. The non-profit dance group is widely recognized for empowering vulnerable and orphaned children through music, dance, and creativity. Their appearance adds a deeper humanitarian and inspirational layer to the project.
The video also pays tribute to Mexico, one of the FIFA World Cup 2026 host nations. In one striking scene, Shakira appears atop Mexico City’s iconic Ángel de la Independencia monument, celebrating Latin culture and the spirit of the tournament. The sequence was reportedly supported by the city’s local tourism campaign.
With colorful visuals, football legends, global music icons, and strong cultural representation, “Dai Dai” is already generating massive attention online and among football fans worldwide.
The FIFA World Cup 2026 will be jointly hosted by the United States, Mexico, and Canada, making it one of the biggest editions in tournament history. The release of “Dai Dai” now adds another layer of excitement as the countdown to the global sporting event continues.
