“Whatever” is a vibrant tropical-house collaboration between Norwegian DJ-producer Kygo and American pop singer Ava Max, released on January 19, 2024. Anchored by an acoustic guitar and pulsating kick drum, the song cleverly interpolates Shakira’s iconic “Whenever, Wherever,” flipping its eternal-love theme into a sharp breakup anthem.
With lyrics like “Whatever, whatever / We were never good together… I never cared,” it brings a confident, liberating twist to the remembrance of love gone sour. The track reached No. 1 in Norway and became a top-10 hit in Sweden.
