Jelena Rozga first announced working on an acoustic album during interviews in 2019 after the success of her acoustic medley performance of three of her songs "Oprosti mala", "Opijum" and "S druge strane mjeseca" on narodni radio's YouTube channel.. In 2022, she announced that the album was nearing finalization and on 15 September that same year, she confirmed that the title of her third compilation album and first acoustic album would be Minut Srca Mog in reference to the 1996 eponymous Magazin single "Minut srca tvog". The first acoustic cover of the song, "Zar je ljubav spala na to" featuring Matija Cvek and produced by Srđan Sekulović – Skansi, was released on the same day along with a music video. On 21 October 2022, "Grizem", originally from Rozga's second studio album Bižuterija (2011), was released as the second single off the album along with a visuals video directed by Dario Radusin. On 14 November, Minut Srca Mog was made available on both YouTube and other streaming platforms; the album features 19 songs recorded during the singer's time as the lead singer of the group Magazin and from her solo career as well as a cover of Croatian singer Minea's song "Rano" from the album Mino zakona. All songs, with the exception of the first single were included in their original form, played and performed live with the addition of instruments such as strings, French harmonicas and Mediterranean mandolins. That same day, the singer held a promotion day at the Esplanade Zagreb Hotel, attended by her close collaborators, friends and family members. Additionally, she performed some of the album's songs joined by 20 musicians on stage; she announced that the performance was only a "warm-up" for the tour's opening show in Zagreb.

She donned a cropped black abdomen-revealing top, lace top and wide black trousers.

Thank you Skopje, I had a great time". According to a journalist of the Macedonian newspaper CrnoBelo.com, Rozga's concert was "spectacular" and "in accordance with world standards" and her twelve back-up dancers performed the choreography as if they were one. According to journalists, the concert was also well-received by the singer's fanbase as the "atmosphere featured a 'music tsunami' and choir singing, lifted arms and smiling faces, but the fact that after three hours, no one wanted to leave home." The concert in Skopje was attended by the former prime minister of the country Dimitar Kovačevski.
