The Kid Mero Talks ‘Desus & Mero’ Split: “Everybody Grows”

July 27, 2022

The brand has moved on. Joel “The Kid Mero” Martinez of Desus & Mero fame addressed the split with his longtime creative partner and chalked it up to the two of them growing apart.

About a week ago, the Internets was thrown for a loop when Desus Nice confirmed that the brand was no more which was shortly followed by Showtime announcing their talk show was a wrap. As the days went along, and more details were revealed—allegedly, the cause of the split was a rift with their longtime manager and sides were chosen—Mero remained quiet.

However, speaking to WFAN last night (July 26), he finally addressed the split from his fellow Bronx brethren. “It’s just natural progression,” Mero told WFAN’s Keith McPherson. “It’s like we said on the podcast, ‘It’s Hollywood, baby.’.. You develop strengths and things that you want to explore and do. And then things just happen naturally. It’s like Spike Jonze said on the Viceland show, ‘Everything is finite.’ What’s the corny cliche? Don’t be sad that it’s gone. Be happy that you experienced it.”
