Kevin Kadish and Tony Ferrari wrote "Soul" in 2020. The song was described by Taste of Country writer Billy Dukes as having a "sweet melody and sexy sentiment". Dukes also noted how the writers altered the word "toes" to "toeses" to make it fit the song's rhyme scheme.[1] Morgan Raum of Country Now stated that the song had an "upbeat melody and extremely catchy chorus".

In January 2022, Brice released the song's music video, directed by Justin Clough and Chase Lauer.[2]

The song was certified Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) in August 2023, honoring 1,000,000 certified downloads.[3]
