AceShowbiz - Shakira continues to solidify her status as the Queen of World Cup Music by teaming up once again for the official 2026 FIFA World Cup anthem titled Dai Dai, alongside Nigerian star Burna Boy.
In a collaborative Instagram post with Global Citizen and FIFA World Cup, the Colombian singer shared a vibrant one-minute teaser of the song and its accompanying music video, set to premiere on May 14. Dressed in a royal blue miniskirt and a bright yellow top while holding a soccer ball, Shakira performs from the iconic Maracanã Stadium in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
The teaser features "You from the day you were born / here in the space you belong ... what broke you once, made you strong," sung by Shakira, accompanied by sweeping aerial views of the stadium emblazoned with the message, "We are ready."
Dai Dai blends infectious reggaetón rhythms with Afrobeats influences, masterfully combining the musical styles of both Shakira and Burna Boy. This collaboration marks Shakira's second official FIFA World Cup song, following her global hit Waka Waka (This Time for Africa) for the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.
The 2010 anthem was a massive success, reaching No. 2 on the Billboard Hot Latin Songs, Latin Airplay, and Latin Pop Airplay charts in July 2010. It also peaked at No. 8 on Latin Rhythm Airplay and climbed to No. 38 on the Billboard Hot 100 during the same period. Notably, Waka Waka held the No. 1 spot on the Latin Digital Song Sales chart for 42 weeks, making it Shakira's longest-leading title on that chart.
News about Dai Dai arrives shortly after Shakira performed for over two million attendees at the free Todo Mundo No Rio festival in Copacabana. Additionally, she announced new U.S. dates for her highly anticipated Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran tour, reflecting strong demand from fans.
With the official release of Dai Dai and its music video scheduled for mid-May, excitement continues to build around the 2026 FIFA World Cup soundtrack, promising another memorable anthem from Shakira and Burna Boy.
