Nigeria’s Afrobeats dominance has reached new heights as Rema, Burna Boy, Davido, and Ayra Starr have been officially confirmed by FIFA Sound to feature on the star‑studded Official FIFA World Cup 2026 Album.
The 18‑track lineup, releasing globally on Friday, June 5, pairs each Nigerian artist with global heavyweights. Ayra Starr teams up with Latto on “Show Me”; Davido joins Major Lazer and Nelly Furtado for “No Place Like Home”; Rema collaborates with K‑pop star LISA and Brazilian Anitta on the high‑energy anthem “Goals”; and Burna Boy partners with Shakira for the tournament’s lead track, “Dai Dai.”
Beyond the album, Rema will headline the opening ceremony at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles on June 12, while Ayra Starr is set to make history performing at the opening match in East Rutherford, New Jersey.
The unprecedented inclusion underscores Afrobeats’ global stranglehold on sports and pop culture.
