Burna Boy confirms release date of his first song of 2026

Burna Boy, in an official announcement, has confirmed the release of his first song as well as a star-studded video for the year 2026.

Global Afrobeats icon Burna Boy has officially kicked off his 2026 musical campaign with the announcement of a massive new collaboration. Partnering with sports broadcasting giant SportyTV, the “African Giant” is set to release a new single titled “For Everybody” on Friday, January 16, 2026.

The announcement, which has already sent social media into a frenzy, features a cinematic teaser showcasing some of the most recognizable faces in European football. While the full lineup of cameos is being kept under wraps until the premiere, the video is rumored to feature elite stars from the Premier League and La Liga, bridging the gap between the stadium and the studio.

Burna Boy shared the news alongside a powerful caption that echoes his career-long themes of resilience and global identity:

“For the dreamers, the ballers, the outsiders, FOR EVERYBODY!”

The track follows a blockbuster 2025 for the artist, which saw the release of his eighth studio album, No Sign of Weakness, and a historic performance alongside England Women’s manager Sarina Wiegman following the Lionesses’ Euro 2025 victory.
