"It was digitally released on 30 June 2017 through Alexandra Stan Records, her own label, due to the singer's desire to work independently." So it didn't have a traditional release?

It was released like any normal single, but instead of a Warner Music or Universal Music credit, we have Alexandra Stan Records. Cartoon network freak (talk) 22:18, 22 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • "Jonathan Currin from CelebMix noted,..." No link for either Currin or Celebmix; is this a valid and reputable source?
Currin is a journalist and critic writing for multiple websites. I have used him for various other GAs in the past, so I think is work is reliable. Cartoon network freak (talk) 22:18, 22 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • "Teodora Dinu from Antena 1 found the song had a positive vibe and was "full of" energy." Antena 1 looks to be a television network, is Dinu an on-air critic or online? Also, surely more of the original quote can be used beyond just "full of"...
There is nothing more that we need, so I removed the quote. Cartoon network freak (talk) 22:18, 22 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • "Another editor from the same website applauded the summery style and danceable rhythm of the track." Still should use this critic's name
Sadly, we do not have the name of the editor there. Cartoon network freak (talk) 22:18, 22 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • "Currinn from CelebMix..." Earlier just one "n" in "Currin" was used...
Fixed that issue! Two ns was right... Cartoon network freak (talk) 22:18, 22 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • "...although noting Stan took a new direction, "She keeps to her usual style, adding flavour, texture, and progression." Different punctuation necessary after the word "direction", comma doesn't work here

  • "Stan first confirmed the release of an accompanying music video shot in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia..." Link for Malaysia if it is the country's first mention

  • "A writer from Antena 1 found that Stan's appearance in the music video was "the hottest [...] of the year"..." Why the bridge in this quote, seems awkward
There are a few more words that we do not need there. Removing the bridge would be incorrect, I think. Cartoon network freak (talk) 22:18, 22 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • "Yannick Murgalé of Aficia suggested that the singer is " more sober, but always so attractive." If no article for Aficia, what is it, and is it a reliable source?
As for CelebMix. I have used this again a couple times in my previous work. Cartoon network freak (talk) 22:18, 22 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
