As with her two previous releases, Nikola Micevski and Dejan Momirovski served as the main producers, while Vesna Malinova served as the main songwriter. Musically, the album marks a more pop-oriented shift as opposed to the ethno and Macedonian folk music sound prominent on her previous two releases Makedonsko Devojče and Makedonsko Devojče 2. The album was well-received by the audience and by several music critics. The album was commercially successful in North Macedonia and Croatia, where it managed to peak at number 33 on the Croatian Albums Chart on 13 March 2019.

"Dzvona" was released as the album's lead single on 19 December 2017 along with an accompanying music video. "Beli cvetovi" was released as the album's second single on 31 October 2018 along with a music video. Both singles were well-received by the singer's fanbase and the wider audience and have garnered 3.3 million and 1.4 million views on YouTube as of 2022, respectively. The album was promoted through a seven-concert tour in February and March 2018 at the Macedonian Opera and Ballet in Skopje. The promotional tour also visited other cities in the country, including Ohrid, Bitola, Tetovo, Gostivar, Kumanovo, Štip and Strumica.
