Her work however, is solely hers, and she is reclaiming what others tried to take from her. Her label manager (played by her husband, actor Terry Crews) belittles her new single, saying it&#8217;s too empowering for women and that the subject should instead be about falling in love with men. As if his condescension wasn&#8217;t enough, his audacity makes him bold enough to ask for a date. Regina cunningly agrees to meet him roller-skating later that night. What he doesn&#8217;t know is that the roller rink is her place of release, a place where her music is celebrated and where her vigour is ready to shut down his entitlement.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Regina takes the lyrics and performs them bravely and confidently, as they should be. Inspired by the summer jams of the late late 70s and 80s, the track aims to transport listeners into a summer haze. But no matter the season, the year, or the situation, the message is clear: we should all manifest our dreams and take back what&#8217;s ours (and then some).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Watch the video for &#8216;Reachin&#8217; For The Top&#8217; below, and find out about Regina Madre and her music online on her official <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ReginaMadreMusic.com\">website<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\">\n<div  style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto;\"  id=\"_ytid_19227\"  width=\"640\" height=\"360\"  data-origwidth=\"640\" data-origheight=\"360\"  data-relstop=\"1\" data-facadesrc=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/CCQxlkUCw7o?enablejsapi=1&#038;origin=https:\/\/essentiallypop.com&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=0&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;loop=0&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=1&#038;controls=1&#038;disablekb=0&#038;color=red&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;rel=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;theme=dark&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__ epyt-facade epyt-is-override  no-lazyload\" data-epautoplay=\"1\" ><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-spai-excluded=\"true\" class=\"epyt-facade-poster skip-lazy\" loading=\"lazy\"  alt=\"REGINA MADRE - Reachin for the Top (Official Music Video)\"  src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/CCQxlkUCw7o\/maxresdefault.jpg?w=640&#038;ssl=1\"  \/><button class=\"epyt-facade-play\" aria-label=\"Play\"><svg data-no-lazy=\"1\" height=\"100%\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 68 48\" width=\"100%\"><path class=\"ytp-large-play-button-bg\" d=\"M66.52,7.74c-0.78-2.93-2.49-5.41-5.42-6.19C55.79,.13,34,0,34,0S12.21,.13,6.9,1.55 C3.97,2.33,2.27,4.81,1.48,7.74C0.06,13.05,0,24,0,24s0.06,10.95,1.48,16.26c0.78,2.93,2.49,5.41,5.42,6.19 C12.21,47.87,34,48,34,48s21.79-0.13,27.1-1.55c2.93-0.78,4.64-3.26,5.42-6.19C67.94,34.95,68,24,68,24S67.94,13.05,66.52,7.74z\" fill=\"#f00\"><\/path><path d=\"M 45,24 27,14 27,34\" fill=\"#fff\"><\/path><\/svg><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the video for her latest single, &#8216;Reachin&#8217; For The Top&#8217;, Regina Madre is self assured as she sings, &#8220;I&#8217;m soarin&#8217;\/ High above the sky&#8221;.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":70465,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"advanced_seo_description":"","jetpack_seo_html_title":"","jetpack_seo_noindex":false,"jetpack_seo_schema_type":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[7,9,21453,21445,21446,21449,640],"tags":[11720,77,370,1945,27719,27348,116,10677,81,22992],"class_list":["post-70424","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-music","category-new-releases","category-new-singles","category-reviews","category-single-reviews","category-video-reviews","category-videos","tag-lisa-hafey","tag-new-release","tag-new-single","tag-new-video","tag-reachin-for-the-top","tag-regina-madre","tag-review","tag-single-review","tag-video","tag-video-review"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p5yMhl-ijS","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":69122,"url":"https:\/\/essentiallypop.com\/epop\/2021\/05\/regina-madre-never-be-the-same\/","url_meta":{"origin":70424,"position":0},"title":"REGINA MADRE &#8211; &#8216;Never Be The Same&#8217;","author":"Lisa Hafey","date":"05\/05\/2021","format":false,"excerpt":"In her songs as Regina Madre, Rebecca King Crews - wife of actor Terry - hasn't held back when it comes to the storm of emotions she's experienced.
