Rucker co-wrote the track over video chat with Ross Copperman, J.T. Harding, and Josh Osborne. Copperman also produced the track. The song's title is a play on words for "B.S." which is typically shorthand for bullshit, but Rucker's lyrics suggest "the only B.S. need is beers and sunshine."

The song debuted at No. 24 on the Billboard Country Airplay chart, making it Rucker's highest debut to date, surpassing the No. 26 start for "True Believers" in 2012. It later became Rucker's ninth Country Airplay number one, reaching the top in the issue dated February 27, 2021. It also debuted at No. 25 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart.
