Regarding the title, Miss Kaninna said "I had other names circling in my head but none of them really felt right. This being my first body of work as an artist I wanted to name it something I can be proud of and look back at in years time and still feel a connection to it. That's when I realised it had to be my name." [5]

At the AIR Awards of 2025, the EP won Best Independent Hip Hop Album or EP and Independent Mix, Studio or Mastering Engineer of the Year for work by Nick Herrera. [6]

Reception

Conor Lochrie from Rolling Stone Australia said "The EP reflects the music Miss Kaninna grew up listening to and loving, from hip-hop to rap, R&B to pop, with flourishes of Afrobeats, Amapiano, and more global musical influences thrown in for good measure." [5]

Tyler Jenkie from The Music said "Anyone who listens to the Kaninna EP will certainly see the scope of Miss Kaninna's artistry. Among the previously-released singles, there's also some more sonic left-turns by the way of the infectiously-bouncy 'Kush', or the Middle Eastern-influenced 'Friends'. Working with producer Jacob Farah (aka YAOB), she's managed to set herself up as a musician unafraid to try new things, open to adopting new approaches, and simply eager to try and create something entirely singular." [7]

Ky Stewart from Junkee said "In just one debut EP, Miss Kaninna showcases her incredible vocal ability, skilled songwriting, and just how good she is at spitting bars." [8]
