Queen Kwong’s ‘Without You, Whatever’ is the “only” pop song she has ever written.
Los Angeles’ Carré Kwong Callaway has had her fair share of struggles. She was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis a few years ago, and shortly after, her husband left as well. She was homeless for a year, living on friend’s couches to get by. The music from her album Couples Only was born during this period as an outlet for her grief and pain from the “ugly divorce”.
Queen Kwong’s song, ‘Without You, Whatever’ off of Couples Only, maintains her message, even though it is different than her usual hard rock tracks.
She says, “’Without You, Whatever’ is the only ‘pop’ song I have ever written and it’s about missing someone that you know deep down you are better off without.”
