About What Ifs (feat. Lauren Alaina)

"What Ifs" is a song recorded by American country music singer Kane Brown featuring Lauren Alaina for his self-titled debut album. The song was released with the album through RCA Nashville and was serviced to radio as the second single on February 6, 2017.

The song was written by Brown with Matt McGinn and Jordan Schmidt. The song is about a couple where the question "what if" is asked repeatedly about what would happen in their relationship. It features a duet with Lauren Alaina, a school friend from Lakeview-Fort Oglethorpe High School when he was living in Fort Oglethorpe, Georgia. According to Brown, the song was initially not intended to be a duet, he said: "Once we decided on adding a woman to "What Ifs," I knew that I wanted Lauren to sing it, and, of course, she killed it." According to Brown, another song was going to be used in the album, however, he was asked so much about "What Ifs" on social media that it was then decided that the song should be included in the album.
