FIFA Secretary General Jérôme Valcke expressed the unique power of music and football to bring people together, emphasizing the collaborative nature of the sport with 22 players on the field. Although Pitbull was absent, Jennifer Lopez and Claudia Leitte attended the press conference. The lyrics of “We Are One,” composed by the three artists, blend Portuguese, Spanish, and English.
Pitbull, of Cuban origin, highlighted the unifying theme of the song, stating, “Music is here to break down barriers and show that through sport and music we are united.” Claudia Leitte described the music as a “golazo” (nice goal).
The anticipation for “We Are One” is high, following the success of Shakira’s 2010 World Cup hit, “Waka Waka.” The collaborative effort is expected to resonate with fans worldwide.
