Kevin's Big Announcement

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right, it's Mojo in the morning. This is going

(00:03):
to be a big topic here right now. This is
going to be a big conversation. And I did not
know he was going to come in and do this
this morning. During our pre show meeting, one of the
slots open for a conversation here on the show was
for cav and when we go around the room and
I'll talk about things that are going on in our lives.

(00:24):
keV said that he was ready to have a conversation,
a real conversation with the listeners that I think some
people kind of started already figuring out. And you already
told us that you've been kind of struggling and going
through some tough things in your personal life.

Speaker 2 (00:41):
But I'm going to give you the floor. Yeah, I
mean new studio, new vibes.

Speaker 3 (00:45):
Schrelle and I are no longer together, We are no
longer in a relationship, and we haven't been in a
relationship for a considerable amount of time, maybe since June
or July this year, so about five or six months.
It has been extremely difficult and obviously life changing. But
I'm at a point now where it needs to be communicated,

(01:07):
it needs to be said, and I still love Sharill.
Obviously I love Joanna, but at this moment, a future
is not something that I'm interested in having.

Speaker 1 (01:18):
What can I ask you? And what can I not
ask you? Because I know the whole story? Yeah, I mean,
what's going on?

Speaker 3 (01:24):
Well, I mean ask what you want and I'm gonna
are you honest, and then if I don't want to
answer it, I'll tell you.

Speaker 2 (01:29):
Are you doing okay? Yeah?

Speaker 3 (01:31):
I think I think you know, some days are the
sun is shining brighter than others, But I think consistently
I felt better lately. And when I say lately, I
mean over the course of two months.

Speaker 2 (01:42):
Okay, how is Charill doing?

Speaker 4 (01:45):
Cherill?

Speaker 2 (01:45):
Is?

Speaker 5 (01:46):
You know?

Speaker 2 (01:46):
I would say the same.

Speaker 3 (01:48):
We had a beautiful discussion last night because I told
her that I was thinking about bringing this to the
Aaron wanted to make sure that she was comfortable with it.
I didn't want her to be surprised, and we have
amazing listeners and people and our family who listen to
the show, and I didn't want to come and have
a conversation and she'd be.

Speaker 2 (02:02):
Blindsided by it.

Speaker 3 (02:03):
So outside of us discussing that portion, we did a
check in because we still live.

Speaker 6 (02:09):
Together bro that you like, I know, Mojo, it was
the whole story. I don't know the whole story, but
that was one of my questions. Was And even when
you just said since June, I was like, oh my gosh, it's.

Speaker 3 (02:21):
Been a while. It's been a while just holding it
in and having to live with it. And I was
talking to Colleen and the Colleen he was like doing
a chicken like how are you. I'm like, do I
got some real life spit going on?

Speaker 2 (02:35):
Yeah? And you know it's obviously cav. I love you,
I love Charrelle. I'll do too.

Speaker 1 (02:50):
I'm sad to see you guys going through this, but
it is it is, you know, real, And I knew
something was coming because you told your buddies, your guy friends. Yeah,
you told us on the air about that, and you
had kind of been holding out because I had asked
you for a while. I feel honored that you and

(03:10):
Cherrelle respect Chelse and I so much that you guys
have shared with us. You know that your struggles when
you guys were going through some struggles. But I also
honestly felt so bad for you that you on the radio.
It's tough for us to do our show and try
to play like everything's great, and I know that you

(03:31):
haven't been great.

Speaker 6 (03:32):
I commend you because I mean, from personal experience, it's
incredibly hard and I feel like you and I know
you're gonna disagree with me, but I feel like you
have been keV, the keV that we all know, and
you've brought the positivity to this show the entire time,
and that's so so hard to do when something's going

(03:52):
on behind the scenes.

Speaker 2 (03:53):
Yeah, I appreciate that.

Speaker 3 (03:56):
It has been a battle, it has been a struggle,
But I'm a firm believer that everything happens for a reason,
and I don't just apply that when the sun is
shining like when it's storm And also everything is happening
for a reason, and we're so blessed in many other.

Speaker 2 (04:09):
Areas of our life.

Speaker 3 (04:10):
I get to wake up, I get to have an
incredible job, I get to have, you know, children and
family and the whole thing that I can't just focus
on the one thing that can be quote unquote a
blemish and allow it to tell the full story like
it made it point going through something like this isn't
a destination, This isn't the end. I'm passing through something
and there would be bumps and roads on the journey,

(04:31):
so to speak. But I love Schrell, like I said,
and you know, it's just at a point where when
you don't protect your relationship there can be holes in it.
And I don't think we did a great job stewarting
our relationship throughout the course of it. And when you
ignore certain things and either discount it or put it

(04:52):
to the side, or don't appropriately give it the moment
and the time that it deserves the attention that it deserves,
those things can grow. Oh, those things can build and
what you once ignored can literally be the thing that
kills you.

Speaker 1 (05:06):
For those that are just tuning in right now, Ke
just shared with us that he and Cherrell have broken up. Yeah,
you guys are friendly with each other, yes, And that
took some time too. It was a period where I
didn't want to look at her. It was a period
where she was, you know, super angry and nasty with me,

(05:26):
And we talked a little bit about that last night
as well. But you have to give yourself time, and
you have to give yourself the ability to go through
the thing and not try to fake like it's okay,
like and that's the thing for me, especially like growing
up in the church, like Easter, I feel like sometimes
we bypassed Good Friday and we'd be like, oh, he resurrected,

(05:47):
but like we forget like he died for a while,
and like there had to be turmoil, they had to.

Speaker 3 (05:51):
Be confusion, like people who believed were you know, they
had to have those thoughts and those feelings. And I
feel like sometimes we get so caught up in the
it'll be okay, it's okay that That is how I've
played out certain moments in my life where I've skipped
over feeling the pain, feeling the hurt, and if just
immediately went through, I.

Speaker 2 (06:07):
Don't gonna be okay, it'll be it'll be fine.

Speaker 3 (06:09):
So I've given myself the opportunity to feel grief, to
feel pain, to give up a future.

Speaker 2 (06:14):
That I thought was mine.

Speaker 3 (06:16):
You know what I'm saying, Like we talking on the radio,
I'm at Lucidos, like yeah, picking out a ring, bro
pt it on her finger, like I'm at the point
where like the money about to get put down. And
then that's when we started to have you know, conversations,
and God bless Cherille that she's the type of person
that she is the honest woman, that she is, the
stand up woman that she is, and it's not a
bad Charille situation. And I want to be so cognizant

(06:38):
of that because obviously I'm the one with the microphone,
so she can't tell her story, and I do not
want it to come off as though she is and
that she is an amazing woman, a great professional, a
phenomenal mother, and I love Sharil, but at this moment,
you know it can't be us.

Speaker 2 (06:52):
How about the the kids?

Speaker 1 (06:54):
How did Josiah and how I mean Journey, I know,
just celebrated her first birthday?

Speaker 3 (06:58):
Yeah, I mean Journal know what was going on? You
know what I'm saying, Like John still journ still love Journ.
She Shell said it last night like she'd be getting
mad because obviously Journy, well not obviously, but Journey is
still sleeping in the bed. And for a while I
wasn't sleeping in the bed. But I'm back now because
I paid for it in another bid was hurting my back.

Speaker 2 (07:14):
You guys, stop, stop, you got to stop before you
talk about the kids for a seconds.

Speaker 1 (07:19):
I want to go back to that. Yeah, you guys
are split up, but yet you're still sleeping in.

Speaker 2 (07:23):
The same pad.

Speaker 3 (07:24):
Listen, I told her this last time, I'm paying for
the bed bro and we had a journey room is
so crazy. Journey never slept in her room, but I
have the bed was nice. But after a while, it's
like my back going too crazy. Right now, I need
to get back in the bed.

Speaker 2 (07:37):
It also works, and like, you don't sleep with people
that you're actively fighting with.

Speaker 6 (07:42):
Is it just okay about Siah because obviously he's he's old.

Speaker 2 (07:49):
Enough to be very aware. Yeah, it's it's difficult.

Speaker 3 (07:52):
But I think what I am very proud of myself
of doing throughout the course of his life is being
very opening here, be honest and not wanting to hide
what's happening in my life with him. And I think
when you set that type of habit, when you set
that type of precedent, when a huge, you know, breaking
news alert comes in, he's not, you know, super overwhelmed

(08:14):
by it because we have that relationship.

Speaker 2 (08:17):
Now.

Speaker 3 (08:17):
Yes, he's hurt because again, this was a woman that
I was gonna marry. Yeah, we are planning our future
in our life and all of that, So it's a
it's a herb. Yeah, for sure. Man, she does use
bonus moment. No, you don't like that she does. George
wants to comment, and there's a lot of people that do.

(08:38):
And there's a lot of people that you know. Listen,
here's the thing, people also, and this is something that's
gonna come over time. You're gonna people speculating and doing something.
Please don't speculate anything, because I will say this to you.

Speaker 1 (08:52):
Whatever is the reason why these guys are doing this,
I truly believe, knowing them personally, they are so smart.
Both of you guys are so smart and so well
thought out. There's a reason why you guys still are
sleeping in the same bed and not wanting, you know,
to kill each other.

Speaker 2 (09:11):
You know what I mean.

Speaker 3 (09:11):
And this may not like I said, and I've told
Sharro this. Who knows what the future may hold. We
may get back together, but we need time to heal.
And I don't think that healing can happen, not if
I have anything to do with that.

Speaker 2 (09:21):
Because you're like, I like to set people up and
I've got no I just I was about to say,
dark meat, this thing's agetting.

Speaker 5 (09:29):
No.

Speaker 1 (09:30):
No, I love I love you, and I love Charrel
and uh, you guys will never be with anybody else
because I won't allow it.

Speaker 2 (09:38):
What's up, George? How you doing? Hey?

Speaker 4 (09:41):
I just want to tell Kevin, I'm sorry what happened, brother,
but you're a great guy. I've been listening to you
guys for over twenty years and since you got on
the air. Kevin, you have a great personality. This time
will pass and guy will have bless you tempo and
your children will be perfect as well.

Speaker 7 (09:53):
Many.

Speaker 2 (09:54):
I appreciate that, George, thank you, Thanks buddy. What's up Rachel?

Speaker 7 (09:58):
Hi?

Speaker 2 (09:58):
How are you?

Speaker 8 (10:00):
Good morning guys?

Speaker 2 (10:01):
Good morning morning.

Speaker 8 (10:02):
So I just wanted to say, you know, I know
it's not easy to share your lives on the radio,
and I know none of you know me from Adam,
but after years of listening to you guys, we've grown
really close to one another. I feel and I'm just
sending love and you know, prayers take Kevin and it'll
be okay. Everything happens for a reason, like you said,
and what's meant to be will be.

Speaker 2 (10:24):
I appreciate that.

Speaker 8 (10:25):
Yeah, absolutely, Rachel.

Speaker 2 (10:27):
Thank you for the call. We appreciate it.

Speaker 1 (10:29):
This is so nice when you get you know, our
listeners that will come to us and they've done it
in every every single one of us has gone through
struggles in our lives and they come to us and
help us out, you know, through this, and I think
you being able to talk about it will be a
great therapeutic lift for you, you know, being able to know
that you're not having a like tiptoe through things.

Speaker 2 (10:51):
Yeah, Vinnie, Yes, sir, what's going on? Vinnie? Hi?

Speaker 7 (10:58):
No mojo? You always say my name row every time
I call him?

Speaker 2 (11:01):
What is your name is?

Speaker 7 (11:03):
Denny? Denny?

Speaker 2 (11:07):
Denny? Like the restaurant?

Speaker 7 (11:09):
Yeah, you call me Vinnie, Lenny, I call you.

Speaker 2 (11:12):
I call you.

Speaker 1 (11:13):
What's written on my screen here right now is that's
what it says, Nnie.

Speaker 2 (11:18):
You guys got to watch. It's lyddy that that. I
didn't get it. But lady Denny, what's going on? Denny?

Speaker 7 (11:27):
Hey? Man, I knew something was wrong, you know, for
a couple of weeks. Oh, I'll say about three weeks
right now. That's something wrong was going on with Sharill
and Kevin, and Uh, I was like, man, I wanted
to type in in the Kevin because sometimes he answered
my text. So on, Uh, when I'm taxed ten nine
five years or and I said, man, something he was
going Sharrell because I said, I mean, yeah, didn't never.

Speaker 2 (11:47):
Talk about it.

Speaker 7 (11:48):
So I was like, then yesterday I even went on
the app and listen over to what he was talking
about his friends going out there. I said, yeah, I'm
going off, I'm going off, and I think.

Speaker 3 (12:00):
Yeah, but Denny makes that correctly, go ahead, Denny, yes.

Speaker 7 (12:05):
Yeah, yeah. And one thing, man, man, I always I'm
in and out with my uh my daughter's mother for
like fifteen years. Man, Man, you never don't catch in
your ticket kit Man. Yeah, she's going through something right now.
You just had a baby and y'all just going you know,

(12:26):
you're probably don't fans of her feelings right now and
all that kind of stuff. It all happens, man, It
all moves out later down the road.

Speaker 1 (12:34):
So he didn't discount or he didn't put aside that
that that he and Cherrelle don't still love each other.
And by the way, again, don't speculate, don't speculate anything,
that's the thing.

Speaker 2 (12:45):
But I don't.

Speaker 1 (12:46):
I don't think that Kevin Cherrelle are the two types
of people that will never have, you know, a relationship
with each other. And I'm not saying it's sexual or whatever.
I'm saying, you guys, you got are you guys have
been meant to be with each other for a very
long time?

Speaker 2 (13:03):
No, that's facts. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (13:05):
And one thing that that Denny mentioned that I want
to kind of kind of dig in a little bit,
is you know, I'm glad for that push with the
conversation we had yesterday because another thing that I would
hate to have happen is I start saying things on
the radio that contradict the thought that I'm going to

(13:25):
propose to this woman.

Speaker 2 (13:26):
Yeah, you know what I mean.

Speaker 3 (13:27):
And I can't have like this double sided version of
me that comes off and I'm saying things that come
from a single mouth. But at the same time, I
have this persona that I'm in a relationship doesn't make
sense to people. Yeah, and it's not.

Speaker 2 (13:41):
Anika. Hi, guys, I you're going through something similar right now.

Speaker 5 (13:47):
I am.

Speaker 2 (13:49):
Hey, keV, I, like the last caller.

Speaker 5 (13:53):
Speculated something was going on a while back, but I've
done that with all of your relationship to you guys
for way too many years. I speculated it with Shannon
as well. But so yeah, I kind of figured something
was going on. But since towards the beginning of this year.
I've actually been going through a divorce after ten years together.

(14:15):
We also have two young kids. We have Our oldest
is going to be four tomorrow, and our youngest just
turned one in August, So it was it was about
right after we had him that things just started kind
of crumbling. And it was the same thing. No one's fault,
there was no sides really, it just ten years together.

(14:38):
We got together when I was twenty, we were both
very young. Then we had we grew and had two kids,
and things grew apart, and it's been very difficult, but
it takes time, like you said, and it's definitely that grieving.
And what I've found is like you will grieve those
firsts for a bit, like the first first birthdays, first

(15:01):
anniversaries that come up, but also like you, we actually
lived in the same house for the first few months
after the divorce was discussed and agreed upon, and slept
in the same bed for a few months before he
found a place came about to because I kept the
house and he moved out and kept our business that

(15:23):
we had together. So yeah, we slept, We slept in
the same bed. Nothing happens, and now actually was technically
isn't finalized until early next year, but we're both dating
new people and I'm in a very happy relationship and
people are like that you moved on very fast. But

(15:43):
as far as my relationship, at least like it took,
it was a while coming sort of thing, like there
was nothing there for a bit. So, but when it
first came up, I actually messaged Shannon and.

Speaker 2 (15:55):
Was like does it get better? Wow?

Speaker 5 (15:58):
Like I messaged Shannon, I was like, my like, I'm
going through a divorce, like this just happened, Like does
it get better?

Speaker 2 (16:06):
Can I tell you something?

Speaker 1 (16:07):
One of the reasons why the show is the way
that the show is is for that is you guys
are looking towards us or feel comfort enough with us
to be able to go in message like you did Shannon,
and then you feel comfortable enough to call Kevin tell
him it's going to get better. And that's the beauty
of being able to do this radio show. And that's

(16:27):
why I think that Kevin being able to just bring
this up right now and to have you give him
a little bit of help will be something even better
for him.

Speaker 5 (16:37):
And I'm here for the other stage of life where
you need one of those go out nights and say
I have some babies.

Speaker 2 (16:44):
I mean, but I'll go out with you, and I
thank you so much. We appreciate that.

Speaker 5 (16:53):
Yeah, guys, I have a great one.

Speaker 1 (16:54):
Do us a favor. Don't get married fast. I will
don't because seriously, I see these people that do that
and they go run off and they go get get me,
take it, take some time, take some time for you.

Speaker 5 (17:07):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (17:09):
Yeah, and for you and Cherrell. I love you guys
so much.

Speaker 1 (17:12):
I want nothing but the best for you, guys, and
I think our listeners do too. You should see by
the way that the messages are just so positive. I
mean they're so positive. Let me ask you this question
real quick. If Sharill is interesting, you mind if we
come on the weed on podcast.

Speaker 2 (17:25):
I would love it. I've been waiting. I'll talk to it.

Speaker 1 (17:28):
I actually wanted the exclusive, but I sold it already
to advertise.

Speaker 2 (17:33):
This morning.

Speaker 6 (17:34):
You were like, wait, really, I'm.

Speaker 2 (17:35):
Sure you want to do this.

Speaker 1 (17:36):
Actually, I think it would be perfect because I because
one of the things that Chelsea and I have never
had it easy. Marriage is not easy. Relationships are not easy.
And to be quite honest with you, this what we're
doing right now and doing this whole thing is way
easier than being in a relationship, so
