Davido Makes History As The First Afrobeats Artist To Feature On FIFA World Cup Official Theme Song

Davido is always representing Africa and his contribution to the 2022 Qatar World Cup is proof of it.

The Fem singer has been tapped for the official soundtrack of FIFA World Cup 2022, Hayya Hayya. The soundtrack which will officially be released today, the 1st of April will form part of the activities behind the one of the first pieces of activation for the World Cup.

Hayya Hayya is produced by RedOne and features vocal performances from Trinidad Cardona, Davido, and Aisha. The song is built on Arabic foundations with more poppy elements which is where our Davido comes in.

The song will be performed live for the first time today at the draw ceremony which will be live-streamed globally. This is a major achievement for Davido as he becomes the first Afrobeat artist to achieve such a feat even though Nigeria failed to qualify for the World Cup scheduled to take place in November.
