With the FIFA World Cup approaching, Canadian musicians are joining forces for a unique initiative led by producer Boi-1da. The project aims to support the Canada Soccer Foundation through an album that bridges music and sport while raising funds for youth soccer programs nationwide.
The Perfect Pitch is a FIFA World Cup-themed album combining diverse Canadian talent. Participating artists include The Tragically Hip, Alessia Cara, Charlotte Cardin, Loud Luxury, Nelly Furtado, and Zeds Dead. The Hip have even granted Boi-1da access to their entire catalogue for the project.
The forthcoming album blends genres and cultures, featuring both original collaborations and reimagined works. It is scheduled for release ahead of the June 2026 FIFA World Cup, aiming to offer a cultural and musical celebration of Canada’s unity in sports and the arts.
“The energy around this project has been incredible. It's inspiring to see so many iconic Canadian artists come together. What we're creating isn't just an album, it's a cultural statement.” — Boi-1da
