Afrobeats sensation Rema has teamed up with South Korean pop star LISA and Brazilian singer Anitta on Goals, the latest single from the Official FIFA World Cup 2026 Album.
The song was released on Thursday across major streaming platforms via SALXCO UAM and Def Jam Recordings, alongside an official music video.
Produced by Grammy-winning producer Cirkut, ‘Goals’ blends Afrobeats, K-pop and Latin pop, reflecting the global diversity of the FIFA World Cup.
In a statement, FIFA described the album as a unifying platform where music and sport intersect to connect fans, communities and cultures across the world.
“As the Official FIFA World Cup 2026 Album continues to unfold, it brings together voices from across continents and genres, reflecting the scale and reach of the tournament,” the statement read.
Reacting to the collaboration, Rema described the project as a landmark moment for global music.
“Three continents, one track… bringing all our sounds together like this is a big moment for music on the world stage,” he said.
LISA also expressed excitement about participating in the project, noting the power of music to unite people globally.
“Being a part of the Official FIFA World Cup Album this year has been so exciting. Music always unites people across the world, so it has been an honour to work with Anitta and Rema,” she said.
Anitta, meanwhile, said her connection to the World Cup was deeply personal.
“My connection to the World Cup is deeply emotional. I’m Brazilian, after all, so I have wonderful memories tied to the tournament,” she said.
