Katt Williams' comments regarding fellow comedians during his appearance on Shannon Sharpe's Club Shay Shay podcast elicited a variety of responses from listeners.

The Emmy Award-winning comedian also leveled accusations against Kevin Hart, labeling him as an "industry plant."

Katt Williams delved into questioning the authenticity of Kevin Hart's early comedy career during his visit to Club Shay Shay on January 3, 2024, where he spoke candidly about his fellow Hollywood peers.

"In 15 years in Hollywood, no one in Hollywood has a memory of going to a sold-out Kevin Hart show..." Katt told Shannon Sharpe.


"...Or there being a line for him or him ever getting a standing ovation at any comedy club.

"He already had his deals when he got here. Have we heard of a comedian who came to LA and in his first year in LA, had his first sitcom on network television or had his own movie he was leading?

"What do you think a [industry] plant is? Maybe people don't understand the definition of these words."

The comedy star added: "I hate to seem like a petty individual for picking apart lies.

"He [Kevin] just did his documentary with Chris Rock where he shows you that his whole upbringing in comedy was on the East Coast.

"So how simultaneously was he here in Los Angeles doing the same thing? It didn't happen.

"It's important in the checks and balances of the universe that liars do not get to make complete narratives for themselves."

"Gotta get that anger up outcha champ. In the meantime….

"There is a moment in the trailer where [Gugu Mbatha-Raw] says 'They Really Love You'….I now know she’s talking about Katt."

Genesis of Kevin and Katt  Beef

The feud between Katt Williams and Kevin Hart traces back to their exchange of words in 2018, sparked by the former's earlier comments about Tiffany Haddish.

Kevin expressed to the Breakfast Club: "My frustration with Katt Williams comes from, you keep pointing at Hollywood, 'Hollywood and the white man, this, this, and this.'

"When do you take responsibility for your actions? You had the shot, you were the guy.

"Have you ever used your platform to f**king bring the people under you up? You haven’t.

"So, because you haven’t, don’t s**t on those who now are."

"That ni**a all up through Saskatchewan, he got 19 shows in Russia.

"He’s then going over to Brazil for a show but anywhere but these motherf**king hoods for a show.

"He’s off making $85 million while I’m not making $85 million but it’s all good.

"I don’t mind making $1 million a month and keeping my soul."
