And, definitely, enters the pantheon of the titans, in all senses." In a 2020 retrospective review for his blog on G1, Mauro Ferreira said the album saw the emerging of "a Brazilian pop music which conciliated MPB, rock, samba and Northeastern razilmusic without having one genre overcome the other" and that ''Mais'' "reversed expectations of the ones waiting for another album of Brazilian music jewels polishing".
