Shakira 'Dai Dai' 5M views

Shakira’s latest YouTube spike was driven by a new football-linked release and a familiar catalog effect. Fan chart account ShakOnChart said on Saturday, May 23, that “Dai Dai” reached No. 2 on YouTube’s daily worldwide rankings with more than 5 million views in 24 hours, while older Shakira videos including “Waka Waka (English)” and “Hips Don’t Lie” also climbed. The burst came as “Dai Dai” was being rolled out as a World Cup-era song with Burna Boy. YouTube’s auto-generated audio listing says the track was released on May 14, 2026, under exclusive license to Sony Music Entertainment US Latin LLC, and coverage published on May 24 described the video as tied to the 2026 FIFA World Cup. ### Why did one new Shakira song jump so fast? (kworb.net) “Dai Dai” appears to have benefited from both event timing and Shakira’s long association with soccer anthems. NBC Bay Area reported on May 24 that Shakira posted the official music video on X on Saturday, and Yahoo’s music coverage said the visual included football stars such as Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappé. (youtube.com) Shakira’s back catalog already gives her a large daily YouTube base. Kworb’s artist page, crawled within the last two days, listed 32.55 billion total YouTube views for Shakira and a current daily average of 9.47 million views across her videos. ### Why were “Waka Waka” and “Hips Don’t Lie” moving too? “Waka Waka” remains one of Shakira’s biggest YouTube assets. (nbcbayarea.com) Kworb listed the 2010 FIFA World Cup song at more than 4.53 billion total views and 1.06 million views “yesterday,” showing that the song still draws heavy daily traffic even before any fresh chart bump. “Hips Don’t Lie” was also still pulling large daily numbers. (kworb.net) Kworb listed the video with 1.81 billion total views and 682,224 views “yesterday,” which helps explain how a new release can lift older hits when fans return to an artist’s channel and playlists. That linkage is an inference from the simultaneous traffic across multiple videos, not a statement from YouTube. ### Is the 5 million figure independently confirmed? The 5 million-in-24-hours figure in this case comes from ShakOnChart, not from a public YouTube daily chart page surfaced in search. The account’s post is the direct source for the No. 2 worldwide claim cited in the card briefing. A separate tracking site, SocialCounts, showed the “Dai Dai” video at about 4.05 million total views when crawled on May 24 and estimated a one-day gain of 3.67 million views for a version it tracked. (kworb.net) That does not fully match the ShakOnChart figure, and the discrepancy means the exact 24-hour total should be treated as a chart-account report rather than a platform-confirmed public number. ### What is actually confirmed about the song itself? Sony Music Latin’s YouTube metadata confirms the recording details. The auto-generated listing for “Dai Dai” names Shakira and Burna Boy as performers and gives a release date of May 14, 2026. Bleacher Report, Yahoo and NBC Bay Area all reported on May 24 that the song and video were tied to the 2026 FIFA World Cup, with the video featuring football imagery and star cameos. (socialcounts.org) On Sunday, May 24, the next measurable step is whether YouTube tracking services and music trade charts show “Dai Dai” holding its position after the first weekend of release.
