I'll do the review on this one. Glad to see an album by Macedonian artist going GA.

Lead

First paragraph – "and see arrangement and production credits by Nikola Micevski and Dejan Momirovski" Perhaps has or contains instead of see? Done
"and the other one of a record originally performed by Macedonian singer Pepi Baftiroski" why not "and the other being a cover of Macedonian singer Pepi Baftiroski" Not done - I like the current sentence as it is & can't spot any grammatical problems with it.
Published is not used very often as a synonym for released, especially not referring singles. Use released instead, even though it might sound repetitive. Done
"From 2015, the album was also promoted in Serbia." From 2015 till when? Why not in 2015? Done

Refs and non-prose sections

Check ref 10, you have some problems in the formatting. Done
For references 5, 9, 22, 41, 45, please avoid writing the title with caps lock even if the title is in capital letters in the link given. Done
Generally, YouTube is not recommended when writing good quality articles, but since this one has no sources in English, I'll accept those.
About the personnel, is anyone in the liner notes credited for playing instruments or being in the technical staff? Done

Reception

"who had the opportunity to listen to it in its entirety and publish a review" – just "listened it and wrote a review" sounds better Done
In an article published in Done
that Goceva has reached her musical zenith and the brightest point of her career with an album characteristic of her hometown, Bitola Done

Background

it represented a change in the musical style Done
why not "folk music" instead of "folk type of music"? Done
turned out to be a ~~big~~ commercial and critical success Done
in the vein of Macedonian ~~folk music and~~ folklore Done
were revealed by Gočeva ~~for the first time~~ You can't reveal something for the second time, right? Done

Composition and lyrics / Recording and development

This section is well researched, but you have some attributes such as "mellow woman", "prominent elements", "state of sadness" that are repeated several times. I've altered some of them in order to avoid repetitiveness.
The recording section is also well researched, but the prose is verbose at places. I won't require a brand new copy-editing, but if you plan to nominate this article for FA, you'll definitely need a copyediting.

Release and promotion

All ~~the album~~ songs were ~~also~~ available on ~~the platform~~ Spotify and ~~every song~~ (each of them) was ~~separately~~ published ~~along~~ with an accompanying lyric video on Gočeva's official YouTube account ~~in the last days~~ (at the end) of February and the beginning of March Done
the album was available for digital purchase ~~worldwide~~ through iTunes Store Done
It ~~represented~~ (was) one of the first ~~projects~~ (albums) in Macedonian released in ex-Yugoslavian countries after a longer period of time. Done
Longer period of time is how many years? It might range from five to fifty. Not done the source does not specify that.
~~In the period~~ from 20 to 24 February Done
along with their ~~purchased entrance~~ tickets Done
an official listening party... Was there an unofficial listening party? Done
which ~~represented a celebration of~~ celebrated (or was a celebration of) the existence Done
Gočeva embarked on a small tour Done
Gočeva explained ~~during~~ in an interview Done
accompanied her on-stage Done
where she ~~presented~~ (performed) ~~the~~ songs from both ~~of the~~ albums Done
three ~~of the album's~~ songs from the album:~~, namely,~~ Done
"Dve liri (ne ni bilo pišano)" was ~~alsoL~~ released as a single in Macedonia ~~and was published for the first time~~ on 13 January 2014. Done
The song "Koj da mi zapee" was ~~also~~ released as a single in April 2015, ~~being~~ and was sent to ~~different~~ radio stations ~~across~~ in Macedonian cities ~~in Macedonia~~ and ~~other~~ countries of ex-Yugoslavia. Done

All right, the article passed the review. Congratulations and well done. Hope to see more articles about Macedonian music get promoted.--Retrohead (talk) 18:33, 1 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
