Lil Baby Raps From the FIFA World Cup in "The World Is Yours To Take" Video
With Tears for Fears.
Following Argentina’s World Cup win, Lil Baby dropped his new music video for “The World Is Yours To Take” with Tears for Fears, which features clips from stadiums in Doha, Qatar, juxtaposed with high-energy moments from matches throughout the tournament.
The visual, helmed by Director X, sees Lil Baby performing live, exploring stadiums, driving boats and enjoying life on the beach. Artists including Argentinian rapper Paulo Londra and Brazilian musician Papatinho, both of whom performed during the World Cup’s celebrations, appear in the video, too.
“I’m by far one of the hardest workers / Real firm believer in ‘Practice make perfect,’” Baby raps on the track. “You can gather all the water, stay thirsty / Took a lot to get us here, we broke curses.”
“I’m excited to make history with Budweiser and close out the 2022 FIFA World Cup with this unforgettable video,” the rapper said in a statement. “Working with Director X and the amazing people from around the globe, we’re celebrating what it means to bring the world together and inspire people to chase those dreams.”
“The World Is Yours To Take” lands on the official FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 soundtrack, which also features contributions from Maluma, Nicki Minaj, Myriam Fares and Jung Kook.
