FIFA has selected “Dai Dai” by Shakira and Burna Boy as the official anthem for the 2026 World Cup. The collaboration marks another milestone for the Colombian superstar, who is no stranger to creating music for soccer’s biggest tournament.
This latest project represents Shakira’s fourth musical contribution to a World Cup event. Her previous World Cup involvement dates back 16 years to when she achieved massive success with “Waka Waka (This Time for Africa).”
According to FIFA, multiple elements influence which songs become synonymous with a particular tournament and continue to resonate with audiences long after the competition ends.
