Palestinian-Chilean singer-songwriter Elyanna, whose real name is Elian Marjieh, and Trailblazing Canadian R&B singer Jessie Reyez have teamed up on “Illuminate,” the latest single on the official FIFA World Cup album.
Produced by Grammy and Juno-winning producer Cirkut, also a proud Canadian, the global pop track blends Reyez’s alt-R&B sound with Elyanna’s global fusion of Arabic, Chilean, and Latin influences.
“Illuminate” is rooted in identity and connection, as the two artists celebrate music and sports.
The track highlights a powerful cross-cultural moment, drawing on distinct perspectives and sounds for the global stage.
It’s the latest single to boost the worldwide sporting event, joining releases from Shakira and Burna Boy’s “Dai Dai,” Jelly Roll and Carín León’s “Lighter,” Los Ángeles Azules and Belinda’s “Por Ella” and Daddy Yankee and Shenseea’s “Echo.”
Elyanna and Reyez are set to perform “Illuminate” at the FIFA opening ceremony in Toronto this June.
Championing global sounds across world music scenes, the full FIFA World Cup soundtrack will be released ahead of the opening match in Mexico City on June 11.
