Shakira and Burna Boy have crossed the billion-stream threshold on YouTube with their global collaboration “Dai Dai,” the official anthem of the FIFA World Cup 2026, according to official platform data released less than four months after the track’s debut on May 23.
YouTube Billion Views Club Milestone for Dai Dai
Released on May 23, the upbeat music video featuring the Colombian star and the Nigerian artist ranks among the ten videos that have fastest reached this milestone on YouTube. According to platform metrics, this achievement marks Shakira’s seventh entry into the exclusive Billion Views Club, while serving as Burna Boy’s debut. The video’s rapid ascent places it among the ten videos that have fastest reached this milestone.
Alongside its video streaming success, “Dai Dai” maintains strong chart positions globally. According to YouTube music charts, the track passes another week at No. 1 on the Global Top Songs list and secured the No. 2 spot on the US Top Songs ranking.
Historic Billboard Chart Performance
Earlier this year, the football-themed anthem made history by becoming the first World Cup song to reach No. 1 on both the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. and Billboard Global 200 charts, maintaining the top positions for 10 weeks and seven weeks respectively. Billboard data further shows that the track claimed the No. 1 spot on the Rhythmic Airplay chart for the week ending September 5. That placement marked Shakira’s first leader on this radio ranking, and Burna Boy’s first as a lead artist alongside his second overall.
