Burna Boy and Shakira's 'Dai Dai'

Afrobeats star Burna Boy and Shakira’s “Dai Dai”, the official song of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, has topped the Billboard Global 200 chart for a fifth week and the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. chart for an eighth week.

The track was the world’s biggest song a month after the tournament ended on July 19, 2026, when Spain defeated Argentina 1-0.

Luminate data shows “Dai Dai” recorded 6,000 sales worldwide and 44.1 million streams between July 7 and July 13.

On the Global Excl. U.S. chart, where it first reigned at the beginning of July, the song logged 37.8 million streams, down 10%, and 4,000 sold, down 8%, outside the United States.

“Dai Dai” also continued to gain traction across U.S. radio formats, rising to No. 3 as the Greatest Gainer on Rhythmic Airplay. It topped the Latin Airplay chart for one week in late July.
