Blake Shelton doesn't want to put out any more albums; instead, he's considering just putting out one song at a time.

Blake told ET on The Voice red carpet, “I don’t want to put out an album. I really don’t. I’m sure that at some point my record company people are going to pressure me into it, but as of now, I’m not putting out an album this year. I know that.”

He's not retiring from music, he says he just wants his music to get out another way, “I’ll be just as happy to release just another single. I do [have more songs] and I’ve got other stuff that I’m pumped about, but when I think about an album right now I’m like, ‘Do people care about them anymore?’ I don’t know. But I’m having a blast just releasing singles. Maybe I’ll do that from now on.”

Just before the Season finale kicked off last night on NBC's The Voice, Shelton "promoted" his new product "Manure'" a cologne he sprayed on just before filming got underway.

He posted to Instagram, "Tonight we celebrate the finale of Season 16 of #TheVoice and my new product manuré!"
