There are a few causes to whining brakes in a car. One reason could be that the caliper is out, and another could be that the pad is worn out.

What causes a 2004 Chevy Blazer to whine all the time?

It sounds like you have a bearing going bad somewhere. Doe the whine increase or decrease when you turn? If it changes when you turn left it is probably the right front hub bearing. If it changes when you turn right it is probably the left front hub bearing. Does it change when you apply the brakes? If it does you probably need new front brakes because the wear sensors are making the whine. You really need to get it checked pretty soon because some things could cause a catastrophic failure and cause you to crash.
