Kane Brown made history this week with his smash hit, "What Ifs," featuring Lauren Alaina. The breakthrough country star is the first artist ever to achieve the #1 spot on all five Billboard country charts.

Brown's platinum-certified single has topped the Country Airplay, Hot Country Songs and Country Streaming Songs charts this week. His success has now put an end to Sam Hunt’s 34-consecutive-week hold for "Body Like A Back Road."

"What Ifs" is the third single to come from Brown's 2016 debut studio album following "Ain't No Stopping Us Now," and "Thunder in the Rain." According to Billboard, after having his eyes on the charts for weeks, he can finally celebrate his first No. 1.

During our exclusive interview, the 23-year-old revealed how "What Ifs" came about and the influence Alaina's had on him. Brown will join Chris Young's Losing Sleep World Tour as a supporting act in 2018.

Congratulations!
