On May 15, 2023, Shakira (Colombian singer) and Burna Boy (Nigerian Afrobeats artist) debuted 'Dai Dai,' the official song for the 2026 FIFA World Cup. The track combines Afrobeats and Latin rhythms, creating a vibrant, multi-lingual anthem. In the song, Shakira mentions iconic soccer nations such as Brazil, Argentina, and Colombia, reflecting the global spirit of the tournament. The release of 'Dai Dai' follows the announcement that Shakira, alongside Madonna and K-pop group BTS, will co-headline the tournament's inaugural final half-time show on July 19, 2026, at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey. This show, curated by Coldplay's Chris Martin, aims to support the FIFA Global Citizen Education Fund, which seeks to raise USD 100 million for children's education and soccer access. Shakira has a notable history with World Cup music, having previously released the hit 'Waka Waka (This Time For Africa)' for the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, which remains a fan favorite.
