In January, FIFA and Sony Music first announced “We Are One,” which was written and co-produced by Pitbull.
“I’m honored to join Jennifer Lopez and Claudia Leitte at the FIFA World Cup to bring the world together,” Pitbull said during the January announcement. “I truly believe that this great game and the power of music will help unify us, because we are best when we are one.”
The multilingual track features Portuguese verses from Leitte along with Brazil’s iconic Samba rhythms.
In February, Pitbull, Leitte and J. Lo were spotted on a colorful set in Fort Lauderdale, Fla. shooting the music video for “We Are One (Ole Ola).” The video for the anthem has yet to be released.
