Burna Boy, a Grammy-winning performer, has lauded Colombian singer Shakira for her dedication to their collaboration on 'Dia Dia', the official song for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

In a recent interview, the Afrobeats star revealed that the Colombian superstar was closely involved in the project.

"She is quite hands-on. She was in charge of everything, from pressing buttons to making phone calls.

"I got a million calls from her during the process, which I enjoyed. "It's not every day that you receive a million calls from Shakira," he remarked.

The duo collaborated on 'Dia Dia', which served as the song for the 2026 World Cup in the United States, Canada, and Mexico.
