Shakira and Nigerian Afrobeats superstar Burna Boy are showing no signs of slowing down as their hit collaboration, “Dai Dai,” continues to dominate the Billboard global charts nearly a month after the 2026 FIFA World Cup came to an end.
The World Cup-inspired track has maintained its strong global momentum, proving that its popularity has extended far beyond the football tournament that helped propel it to worldwide attention.
“Dai Dai” has continued its impressive run on the Billboard Global 200, where it remains one of the biggest songs in the world. Its performance is being driven by strong streaming numbers and widespread international appeal.
The collaboration brought together two of the biggest names in global music. Shakira, one of Latin music’s most successful artists, joined forces with Burna Boy, whose influence has helped take Afrobeats to audiences around the world.
The song’s continued chart success is particularly significant because World Cup songs often experience their biggest surge during the tournament before dropping once the competition ends. “Dai Dai,” however, has managed to maintain its momentum weeks after the final whistle.
For Burna Boy, the achievement further strengthens his growing presence on the international pop stage. The Nigerian star has steadily expanded his global audience through collaborations with major artists across different genres.
Shakira, meanwhile, adds another major football-related hit to her catalog. The Colombian singer famously performed “Waka Waka (This Time for Africa)” for the 2010 FIFA World Cup, one of the most recognizable football songs of all time.
With “Dai Dai” continuing to attract listeners worldwide, the collaboration appears to have successfully crossed the line from tournament anthem to lasting global hit.
Even with the 2026 World Cup now behind them, Shakira and Burna Boy are still winning on the charts.
