ESPN Radio Voice Cayman Kelly Renews Contract

Cayman Kelly

Groundbreaking voiceover artist and Black icon Cayman Kelly recently renewed his contract with ESPN Radio, celebrating his one-year anniversary. 

Known for his signature-smooth, room-grabbing sound, Cayman first came to prominence doing voiceover work for BET. He has since expanded his portfolio dramatically, including voiceovers for animations and video games, television, nationally recognized album promos, popular morning radio shows, and of course, national radio.

"I am extremely proud and honored to continue this role with ESPN – it's really a crown jewel in my career," said Cayman. 

"And I have to underscore the importance of Black visibility here. It's crucially important that Black artists be seen and heard, whether that's onscreen or on radio. We have a whole new generation growing up now who aren't limited like we were. Our children don't have the same bleak expectations so many of us had when we were young. Those boundaries are coming down all around us and it's a beautiful thing. The history of Black artists in radio just further showcases how Black history is American history. And that is always worth celebrating."

"Cayman brings an unmatched sound and primetime feel to everything he does," said David Roberts, ESPN Senior Vice President of Production. "We are excited to work with Cayman and look forward to his advice differentiating the sound of ESPN Audio."
