"Mamma Mia" was initially released for digital download and streaming in the United States on 5 August 2014 under Robbins Entertainment, and worldwide the following year in July under Cat Music.
Music critics gave the song mostly positive reviews, complimenting its catchy instrumentals, but doubted the role of the featured artist by calling it "not convincing".

[10] "Mamma Mia" marks Elena and Glance's second collaboration, the first one being "Ecou" (2013), which achieved huge chart success in the singer's native country.
