Burna Boy and Shakira Gear Up for Historic World Cup Final Halftime Show

Nigerian superstar Burna Boy and global icon Shakira have reunited in New Jersey as they prepare to headline the first-ever FIFA World Cup final halftime show. The Grammy-winning singer shared rehearsal highlights on his social feed, captioning the clip with bilingual cheers: “Sunday Prep! Dai dai, ikó, dale, allez, let’s go!” Scheduled for Sunday’s Spain vs. Argentina final, the Super Bowl-style segment will feature “Dai Dai,” the official 2026 World Cup song, alongside performances by BTS, Madonna, Justin Bieber and more. This landmark appearance marks another milestone for Afrobeats on the world stage and will support global education initiatives for children.

Are you thinking they'll blend Afrobeat with Latin pop on certain tracks or keep separate segments?
