Lil Baby is back with a new single. Titled “The World Is Yours to Take,” the track is built around an extended sample of the classic Tears for Fears song “Everybody Wants to Rule the World.” Check it out below.

The song is set to appear on the official soundtrack for the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar. In the buildup to the tournament, Lil Baby will release eight other versions of the song in collaboration with other musicians from countries around the world.

Lil Baby’s third solo studio album, It’s Only Me, was announced earlier this month. The album, which follows 2020’s My Turn and 2021’s The Voice of the Heroes with Lil Durk, will include the recent single “Detox.” In August, he teamed up with Drake and DJ Khaled for “Staying Alive,” a standout from Khaled’s recent album God Did that interpolates the Bee Gees song of the same name.
