The World Cup — officially — has an official song. Shakira and Nigerian singer-songwriter Burna Boy have combined to release “Dai Dai,” FIFA said in a statement Friday. “Dai Dai brings together the global sounds and energy of Shakira and Burna Boy in a vibrant celebration of football, culture and unity," FIFA said.

The World Cup has officially found its anthem. Shakira and Nigerian music icon Burna Boy have teamed up to release "Dai Dai," FIFA confirmed in a statement Friday. Described as a "vibrant celebration of football, culture and unity," the track blends global sounds and high-energy rhythms, perfectly capturing the spirit of the world's biggest sporting event.

This isn't Shakira's first time lending her voice to the tournament. The Colombian superstar, known for her previous World Cup hits, teased the collaboration earlier this month by sharing a minute-long clip on social media, announcing from the iconic Maracanã Stadium: "Here is 'Dai Dai,' the FIFA World Cup Official Song 2026." The song is now available on major streaming platforms, and FIFA has revealed that royalties will go toward supporting the FIFA Global Citizen Education Fund.

The timing couldn't be more perfect. Just one day before the song's release, FIFA unveiled plans for a star-studded halftime show at the July 19 final in New Jersey, featuring Madonna, Shakira, and K-pop sensation BTS. With the tournament set to kick off in June across the United States, Canada, and Mexico, "Dai Dai" promises to be the soundtrack that gets fans everywhere moving—whether they're in the stands, watching from home, or gearing up in their favorite team gear.
