S1 E4: Regina Belle

Donnie Simpson Show

15-12-2021 • 1 hr 8 mins

In today’s episode, Donnie speaks with singer-songwriter Regina Belle, a wonderful friend since 1989. They talk at length about Aretha Franklin and what her music meant to them, as well as the changes in the music industry Regina experienced since starting her career back in the late 1980s. They also explore Belle’s personal life, including her triumphant battle with a brain tumor, her experience of winning a Grammy, and the enormous rise of her fanbase as a result of "A Whole New World" (one of, if not, the most successful Disney song of all time).
