InterMedia 6/10

Danila Golovkin of InterMedia gave the mini-album a 6 out of 10, describing the project as "an endless repetition of ourselves." Golovkin compared the title track to a "prosaic club hit with a primitive arrangement and an endless chorus ... a mixture of the national tradition of popular music of the 90s with last year's rap to a straight kick". [5]

Music video

The music video for the song "Go Bananas" [6] was released the next day on 15 November on YouTube. [7] The video got its first million views in 6 hours, [8] two million views in 10 hours, [9] [10] and by the first day, over 3.3 million views. [9] The video demonstrates various actions turned upside down, including: toilet relieves itself one of the members of the group (Anton Lissov), Ilya Prusikin bursts a balloon, but bursts himself instead, fish are shocked that people cannot breathe outside the water and a pigeon feeds people with bread etc. [11] [12]

Danila Golovkin from InterMedia called the video mediocre than the song itself, in which the group collected their old techniques from previous music videos. [5]
