Scotty McCreery recorded the album while he was attending North Carolina State University. The producer of the album was Frank Rogers. McCreery co-wrote 5 of the tracks of the album, including the title track which he co-wrote with songwriter Ashley Gorley and Zach Crowell. He also collaborated with Alison Krauss on "Carolina Moon" where she provide backing vocals. He considered "Carolina Moon" to be his favorite track on the album.
The album received generally positive reviews from music critics, with an overall Metacritic rating of 73 indicating "generally favorable reviews". Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic found that the sound of the album has changed from the old-fashioned country of the first album, that its modern country sound is so "glossy and effervescent" making it seem McCreery's voice had jumped a couple of octave. He considered that McCreery had redefined himself as a "sports bar-hopping bro" in the album, but nevertheless thought the album works. Chuck Dauphin of Billboard thought that McCreery and the producers did well in stretching his music wings in the album, with positive reviews for most of the tracks.
