World Cup Anthem Soars! Shakira & Burna Boy Conquer Global Charts with 'Dai Dai'

Shakira and Burna Boy's “Dai Dai (FIFA World Cup Official Song 2026)” has achieved a significant milestone by securing the top spot on the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. chart. This marks a historic moment as it is the first official World Cup anthem to reach No. 1 on this ranking since its inception in 2020. Previously, Jung Kook’s “Dreamers (Music From the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022)” had peaked at No. 4, setting a notable precedent for World Cup anthems on the chart.

The track’s dominance is evident in its sixth week on the Global Excl. U.S. chart, where it surged from No. 7 to No. 1. During the period of June 19-25, “Dai Dai” garnered an impressive 31.5 million streams, representing a 6% increase week over week, and sold 4,000 units outside the United States, according to Luminate data. This achievement marks Shakira’s second No. 1 on the Global Excl. U.S. chart, following her collaboration with Karol G on “TQG” in March 2023. For Burna Boy, this is his inaugural time ruling the ranking, making him the second artist from Nigeria to top the list, after Rema with “Calm Down” in 2023. Colombia has seen three acts lead this list: Shakira, Karol G, and Maluma with The Weeknd.

The song’s success is closely tied to its association with the FIFA World Cup 2026. Shakira and Burna Boy delivered a memorable performance of “Dai Dai” for over 80,000 fans at the World Cup opening ceremony on June 11, held at Mexico City’s Estadio Azteca. The highly anticipated soccer tournament is set to conclude on July 19, with Shakira, BTS, and Madonna slated to perform at the first-ever World Cup final halftime show at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J.

While “Dai Dai” celebrates its success, other notable songs are making waves across the Billboard charts. Olivia Rodrigo’s “Stupid Song” maintained its No. 1 position for a second consecutive week on the Billboard Global 200, accumulating 45.9 million streams and 2,000 sales worldwide. On the Global Excl. U.S. chart, BTS’ “Swim” held steady at No. 2 after eight weeks atop the chart since April, Ariana Grande’s “Hate That I Made You Love Me” remained at No. 3, Michael Jackson’s “Billie Jean” climbed to No. 4, and “Stupid Song” dropped to No. 5. On the Global 200, “Hate That I Made You Love Me” rebounded to No. 2, “Billie Jean” rose to No. 3, and Olivia Rodrigo also had “The Cure” and “Drop Dead” charting at No. 5. Significantly, “Dai Dai” also made a substantial leap on the Global 200, climbing from No. 20 to No. 9, driven by 35.2 million streams in the U.S., marking Shakira’s third and Burna Boy’s first top 10 entry on this chart.
