Critical commentary has noted Hot as an
Critical reception and accolades
Music critics gave mixed to positive reviews of Hot upon its release. Corner of Digital Spy thought that the album "does exactly what you would expect from the scantily clad Inna [...], there's no denying that the sound emanates summer warmth and memories of partying down the [insert Greek island here] strip, but little else is achieved." Corner further criticized album tracks "Fever", "Ladies" and "Left Right" as lacking innovation, while concluding: "Inoffensive if not a little uninspiring, Hot is a worthy soundtrack for this year's 18–30 clubbers, but even they might struggle to see this one out to the bitter end."[21] Sarkar, writing for The Hindu, was more positive towards the record, saying: "Her debut album is a compilation of her numerous hit singles, making this record quite an entertaining listen, especially for the under 30 party goers". He went on to label "Fever" and "Ladies" as monotonous, but concluded: "When so many hit singles are put together on one record, there's no way the outcome can be bad".[20] At the 2010 Romanian Music Awards, Inna won four out of six nominations, including in the Best Album category for Hot.[27][28] The singer was also nominated for four awards at the 2011 Radio România Actualităţi Awards, including one win for Hot in the Pop/Dance Album of the Year category.[29]

"Amazing" attracted controversy when it premiered in August 2009,[7] with Romanian singer Anca Badiu revealing that it had been originally intended for her before released by Inna, and accusing Play & Win of breach of contract.[62][63] "Amazing" achieved similar success to its predecessors, becoming her second number-one single in Romania.[64]
A last single, "10 Minutes", premiered in January 2010,
