After Velasquez signed with PolyGram in 1994, she released her fifth studio album, Listen Without Prejudice, in countries including China, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Taiwan, and Thailand.[4] It featured the lead single "In Love With You", a duet with Jacky Cheung.[5] The album has sold 700,000 copies in Asia, making it the best-selling album of her career to date.[5][6] Two more studio albums were released in the region, My Love Emotion (1995) and Retro (1997). In 1998, Velasquez parted with PolyGram and signed with Los Angeles-based producer Mark J. Feist's MJF Company.[7][8] Her ninth studio album, Drawn, was released in November 1998 and includes the singles "How Could You Leave" and "Ikaw". The next year, she released her tenth studio album, R2K (1999), which was subsequently certified twelve-times platinum by the Philippine Association of the Record Industry (PARI) and became the best-selling album by a female artist in the Philippines.[2][9]

Velasquez released the soundtrack album Kailangan Ko'y Ikaw in July 2000. Its lead single served as the love theme of the motion picture of the same name. The album sold more than 240,000 copies and was certified six-times platinum.[10] In October 2000, she released her first live album, Regine Live: Songbird Sings the Classics, a fifteen-piece setlist performed at the Westin Philippine Plaza in Manila. The singer's subsequent records—Covers, Vol. 1 (2004), Covers, Vol. 2 (2006), Low Key (2008) and Fantasy (2010)—were all cover albums. Velasquez took a three-year break to record new material and introduced a gospel-inspired album Hulog Ka Ng Langit (2013), which includes the singles "Nathaniel (Gift of God)" and "Hele Ni Inay". Her seventeenth studio album, R3.0, was released in October 2017. Its singles, "Tadhana" and "Hugot", were released a month earlier.[11][12]

Having sold more than seven million records in the Philippines and a further million and a half in other parts of Asia, Velasquez is the best-selling Filipino artist of all time.[13] According to PARI, she is also the only Filipino artist to have eight of her albums exceed sales of 200,000 units each.[13]
