Blake Shelton Scores 7th No. 1 Album With “Fully Loaded: God’s Country”

Blake Shelton scored his seventh No. 1 on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart this week with the debut of Fully Loaded: God’s Country. The new album moved 96,000 equivalent units, according to Nielsen Music, which was good enough for No. 2 on the all-genre Billboard 200 chart.

The 12-song offering features five new tunes—including “God’s Country,” “Hell Right” and a duet with Gwen Stefain on “Nobody But You”—with seven previously recorded hits, including “Came Here to Forget” and “I Lived It.” The new album aligns titularly with past compilations, Loaded (2010) and Reloaded (2015).

“You never know when all of this is gonna fade away,” said Blake. “So thank God for the fans who continually support my music and inspire me to keep the party going! Also want to thank the songwriters who trusted me with their music. This album wouldn’t exist without them.”
