Following Argentina’s victory over France at the 2022 World Cup final, Lil Baby and Budweiser have shared the music video for the Tears For Fears-inspired FIFA anthem “The World Is Yours to Take.” The song was originally released in September as part of the official FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 soundtrack, with two international remixes from Argentine rapper Paulo Londra and Brazilian producer Papatinho, who both make cameos in the new video.
The video for The World Is Yours to Take is directed by Canadian filmmaker Director X, and was inspired by the video for Tears For Fears’ “Everybody Wants to Rule the World,” using desert backdrops. Other moments show Lil Baby walking through FIFA World Cup stadiums, where he greets Londra and Papatinho, and feature additional international artists, DJs and creators. There are also scenes from the World Cup tournament, including Argentina’s celebrations on the 2022 World Cup stage and clips from the rapper’s performance at the Budweiser event in BUDX Doha in Qatar.
Lil Baby said in a statement on the video’s release: “I’m excited to make history with Budweiser and close out the 2022 FIFA World Cup with this unforgettable video. 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.”
