OPM fans are in for something truly special! Rising pop singer-songwriter and beauty queen Dia Mat&eacute; has released a powerful new anthem titled Ina featuring none other than Asia&rsquo;s Songbird, Regine Velasquez-Alcasid.
Dropped on May 2 along with a stunning lyric video, the single is a tribute to love, legacy, and inclusivity. Mat&eacute; says Ina was written in honor of The Golden Gays, a nonprofit group providing shelter and support for LGBTQ+ elders aged 60 and above.
In a heartfelt press release, Mat&eacute; shared what it was like working with the legendary OPM icon. &ldquo;It is such an honor to collaborate with an OPM legend. Having Ate Reg&rsquo;s lyrics and vocals on the track makes the song even more meaningful and impactful. I&rsquo;m really grateful she was game to hop on the track,&rdquo; she said. The Reina Hispanoamerica 2025 queen hopes the track will give voice to the often-overlooked stories of queer elders and inspire listeners to see them through a lens of honor and love.&nbsp;
&ldquo;This song is also for my family members, friends, mentors, and mamas within the community,&rdquo; Mat&eacute; added. &ldquo;They have stood by my side and guided me every step of the way in life, in my music career, and in my pageant journey. I have so much love and respect for all of them.&rdquo;
With Regine Velasquez-Alcasid&rsquo;s powerhouse vocals and Dia Mat&eacute;&rsquo;s heartfelt storytelling, this track can surely be the anthem of queer resilience. Check out Ina on all major streaming platforms, Fam!
