Country music artist Charles Esten has just released his full-length debut album Love Ain’t Pretty, but what some may not know is that he has been releasing music for years. In fact, he broke the Guinness World Record for the most consecutive weeks to release an original digital single.

During his On The Record episode, he explains why he decided to do that and why he just now released his debut album.

On The Record airs Friday nights at 8:30 PM ET on RFD-TV, the RFD-TV Now App, and our YouTube channel.
