YouTube published its weekly music chart data for the period ending May 28, 2026. The headline figure is unambiguous: "Dai Dai" by Shakira and Burna Boy debuted at number one on the Global Weekly Top Songs chart with 44,129,627 views, climbing from position 66 just one week earlier. The move ends "NO BATIDÃO" by ZXKAI and slxughter's hold on the top positions — the Brazilian phonk track slid from number nine to number eleven with 20,245,055 views in its 31st week. Simultaneously, "Waka Waka (This Time for Africa)" by Shakira, the official song of the 2010 FIFA World Cup, re-entered the global top 10 at position nine with 21,314,895 views in its 50th week on the chart.

The two Shakira tracks occupying positions one and nine of the global chart in the same week is a data point that does not have an obvious recent precedent in this publication's ongoing chart coverage.

What "Dai Dai" is

"Dai Dai" was released on May 15, 2026, as the official song of the 2026 FIFA World Cup through Ace Entertainment and Sony Music Latin. The title is derived from an Italian expression used to encourage a person or team — comparable to "allez" in French or "dale" in Spanish. Burna Boy, the Nigerian Afrofusion artist, co-wrote and performed the track alongside Shakira, with additional writing credits going to Jon Bellion, Benny Adam, Ed Sheeran, and Alexander Castillo. The music video, uploaded on May 23, 2026, was filmed in Miami and features cameos from footballers including Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappé, Vinícius Júnior, Harry Kane, and Luis Díaz, among others.

The song's chart trajectory was steep. It accumulated more than 10 million views within 24 hours of the video's publication, reached 21 million views by May 26, and crossed 41.6 million within six days. By the May 28 chart measurement date, its weekly view total across all song formats stood at 44,129,627 — the highest single-week total recorded on the global chart since the data period covered in this report.

The Global Weekly Top Music Videos chart confirms the same picture. "Dai Dai" debuted at number one on that chart in its first week with 37,690,710 views, displacing "Shararat" by Shashwat Sachdev, Madhubanti Bagchi, and Jasmine Sandlas, which fell to second with 21,655,631 views.

The Waka Waka shadow

The simultaneous re-emergence of "Waka Waka (This Time for Africa)" is not incidental. The 2010 World Cup anthem has spent 50 weeks on the global songs chart, moving from position 16 to position nine — a six-spot gain — with 21,314,895 views. Sixteen years separates the release dates of the two Shakira World Cup songs, yet both appear in the same global top 10 simultaneously. PPC Land has tracked the Michael Jackson catalog pattern across prior weeks; a comparable dynamic appears to be operating here with Shakira's catalog: the release of "Dai Dai" amplified search and discovery activity around her older material on a platform architecturally suited to surfacing catalog content.

On the Global Weekly Top Artists chart, Shakira climbed ten positions to number eleven with 156,359,897 weekly views — the largest positional gain among the top 20. Growth was recorded at 0.41%, the highest growth rate in the top 15. She is the only artist in the global top 15 to have two separate songs in the global songs top 10 this week.

NO BATIDÃO's position

"NO BATIDÃO" did not disappear. It sits at number eleven on the global songs chart, with 20,245,055 views in its 31st week. The track has dropped from its recent peak but remains within the top 15 globally without any visible promotional driver. On the Global Weekly Top Shorts Songs chart, it now sits at number four in its 30th week, having fallen from number two. ATLXS with "PASSO BEM SOLTO (Slowed)" continues to hold the Shorts global number one position, which it has occupied for 62 consecutive weeks.

The structural distinction is worth stating plainly. "NO BATIDÃO" held the global songs chart number one position for 27 consecutive weeks as of late April 2026, a record covered here in detail. The track's current position at eleven does not represent collapse; no organic track sustains a displacement this hard. What it represents is a World Cup anthem arriving with institutional promotional infrastructure, star power on a global scale, and a video specifically designed to produce high views per impression.

The Michael Jackson factor

Across the 15 territories covered in this report, Michael Jackson catalog titles appear with unusual depth. "Billie Jean" is at number five globally with 28,434,644 views, in its 30th week. "Beat It" holds sixth with 26,517,118 views in its fifth week. These two tracks appear together in the top 10 of the global chart, the US, UK, Australia, France, Germany, and the Netherlands — six out of the eight anglophone or Western European markets measured.

In the US, "Billie Jean" sits at third with 4,887,722 views in its 46th week, while "Beat It" is fifth with 4,622,372 views and "Thriller" places seventh with 3,695,035 views. Three Michael Jackson titles in the top seven of the US chart, in the same week that a high-profile FIFA World Cup anthem debuted — the pattern is unusual enough to warrant notation. The chart data does not identify the underlying trigger, whether a film, a promotional campaign, a social media event, or algorithmic redistribution. India, Japan, Kenya, and Indonesia show no Michael Jackson entries in their top 100 charts, so the phenomenon is geographically concentrated in Western markets.

Quevedo held second and third with "LA GRACIOSA" (co-featuring Elvis Crespo) and "AL GOLPITO." "La Morocha" by Luck Ra and BM remained at fifth in its 81st week — a chart longevity figure that rivals "Ordinary" by Alex Warren on the UK chart.

Indonesia

Indonesia showed no response to "Dai Dai" or to the Michael Jackson surge. The chart is dominated by domestic content.

"Penyangkalan" by For Revenge made the chart's biggest move, jumping from position 38 to fifth with 4,717,261 views.

Global artists and the Indian market's structural dominance

The Global Weekly Top Artists chart confirms what the song-level data implies. Alka Yagnik led with 466,981,139 views, a figure that dwarfs any individual song chart number and reflects the cumulative streaming behavior of a market with the largest base of YouTube music consumers globally. Udit Narayan held second at 352,607,329 views. Arijit Singh sat at third at 337,233,134 views. Michael Jackson ranked fifth globally at 246,942,608 views — the highest-ranked non-Indian artist in the top 10, consistent with the catalog movement across Western markets described above. Shakira's entry at eleventh, at 156,359,897 views with 0.41% growth, reflects her debut week.

Shorts and the format gap

"PASSO BEM SOLTO (Slowed)" by ATLXS maintained Global Weekly Top Shorts Songs number one for its 62nd consecutive week. "NO BATIDÃO" fell from second to fourth on the Shorts chart in its 30th week. Aya Nakamura's "Copines" moved from third to second in its sixth week. "Dai Dai" did not appear in the top 50 of the Shorts chart — its debut was concentrated on the main video format, not the vertical short-form surface.

Why this matters for the marketing community

The "Dai Dai" debut illustrates a platform dynamic that marketing planners should understand as distinct from organic growth. YouTube's termination of its data partnership with Billboard in January 2026 made its own charts the primary measurement infrastructure for YouTube-specific consumption. What the May 28 data shows is how a single high-profile video release — one built around a major sporting event, featuring celebrity athlete cameos, distributed through major-label infrastructure — can produce a 65-position jump in a single week on the global chart.

The geography of "Dai Dai"'s debut is also instructive. It topped the charts in Germany, Spain, the Netherlands, Portugal, and globally. It debuted in the top 10 in France, the US, the UK, and Kenya. It did not chart in the top 10 in Brazil, South Africa, Indonesia, Japan, or India. The correlation is roughly with markets where international pop (particularly from Shakira's Spanish-language world) has historically performed well. No song, regardless of institutional backing, registers uniformly across a platform that YouTube itself has described as architecturally rewarding catalog discovery.

The second signal is the concurrent "Waka Waka" re-entry at global ninth. For advertisers and media planners, this pattern suggests that event-driven catalog reactivation can be measured with precision on YouTube Charts, and that the platform's measurement infrastructure now captures this in real time. A World Cup is approaching; the platform data already shows where the attention is concentrating.

Timeline

Summary

Who: YouTube published weekly music chart data for the period ending May 28, 2026. The primary subjects are Shakira and Burna Boy ("Dai Dai"), the 2026 FIFA World Cup official song; ZXKAI and slxughter ("NO BATIDÃO"); the KPop Demon Hunters Cast ("Golden"); Michael Jackson (catalog entries across 10 territories); Ella Langley ("Choosin' Texas," US number one); and regional chart leaders including M!LK (Japan), Mauvais Djo (France), Bien and Alikiba (Kenya), and Trechyson Molly vx (South Africa).

What: "Dai Dai" by Shakira and Burna Boy debuted at number one on the YouTube Global Weekly Top Songs chart with 44,129,627 views, having jumped from position 66 in a single week. The track also debuted at number one on the Global Weekly Top Music Videos chart with 37,690,710 views. "Waka Waka (This Time for Africa)," Shakira's 2010 World Cup anthem, re-entered the global top 10 at ninth with 21,314,895 views in its 50th week. "NO BATIDÃO" by ZXKAI and slxughter fell to eleventh globally in its 31st week, ending a run at or near the chart's summit that had lasted most of 2026. Michael Jackson catalog titles appeared in the top 10 of the US, UK, Australia, Germany, France, and the Netherlands simultaneously.

When: The data covers the seven-day period ending May 28, 2026. The "Dai Dai" music video was published on May 23, 2026. The song's audio release was May 15, 2026.

Where: YouTube's global platform, measured across 15 territories: Global, United States, United Kingdom, Australia, Brazil, India, Japan, Germany, France, Spain, Kenya, South Africa, Netherlands, Portugal, and Indonesia.

Why: The 2026 FIFA World Cup begins June 11, 2026, in North America. "Dai Dai" is the official song of the tournament, released approximately three weeks before the opening match. The confluence of major-label distribution infrastructure, celebrity athlete cameos in the music video, FIFA's institutional promotional reach, and Shakira's established cross-market audience produced a debut view total that displaced the most durable chart-topper YouTube has measured in this publication's coverage period. The simultaneous re-entry of "Waka Waka" at global ninth reflects catalog reactivation driven by the same event-driven attention. The data, published by YouTube, was reported here on June 4, 2026.
