Luenell Wants “Club Shay Shay” Interview, Shoots Her Shot With Shannon Sharpe

January 19, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Luenell had a risque proposal for Shannon Sharpe as she declared her intention to appear on Club Shay Shay. “Hey @clubshayshay, I like private planes too. Lemme [know if you want] a lil mid-air kitty kat (meow). Oh well, we can talk about it when I come on the show one day,” the comedian posted on Instagram. “@clubshayshay @shannonsharpe84 #LueNatiks tag him & let him know I stand on BUSINESS,” she added as a rallying cry caption.

Luenell’s offer comes as the world continues to come to terms with the interview done by her School Dance co-star Katt Williams. Williams went absolutely scorched earth on the entertainment industry, especially taking aim at the likes of Ludacris and Kevin Hart. After the interview went live (and immediately viral), Sharpe took The Nightcap that he knew Williams was going to be the one that broke the internet.

Meanwhile, Williams has continued to feud with Luda weeks after the interview dropped. Williams dropped a freestyle aimed at Luda while appearing on Suge Knight’s Collect Call podcast. “I’m coming for your number one spot, one of us a killer and the other one is not/ One of us the realest and the other one a fraud/ You heard the interview on ‘Club Shay Shay,’ I gave ’em all a payday/ I’m still going f-cking viral so who care what the haters say/ Ludacris, you must be out your rabid a– mind/ You made a rap song but, n-gga, you ain’t say I’m f-cking lying,” Williams rapped. Furthermore, Williams implied that Ludacris had engaged in a sexual relationship with Quincy Jones.

Previously, Ludacris had dropped a freestyle aimed at Williams after the comedian suggested that Luda had earned his role in the Fast & Furious franchise after participating in an Illuminati ritual. “So there was a crossroads where we were both invited to an Illuminati thing, and it had to be one or the other of us and decisions had to be made. So it was both of us, we were equal. One of us had to cut off all their hair and couldn’t do the sideburn thing no more, with the points. And the next person they said was going to get $200 million because they were going to pay him $10 million a movie to do 20 movies. And that’s how the conversation happened. One of those persons turned out to be Ludacris, and the other person turned out to be Katt Williams,” Williams claimed.

“Jess, like I always told her, she never tells the 100% truth, and I let her do that,” Wayne told Sharpe. “I text Jess the other day, I said, ‘Jess, man,’ I got kinda petty.

How Katt Williams Became Comedy’s Truth-Teller

January 15, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Comedian Katt Williams kicked off 2024 with an explosive interview on Club Shay Shay. In the now-viral interview, Katt dished out scathing hot takes on everything from Kevin Hart to Kanye West, Steve Harvey, and beyond. The nearly three-hour-long video has shaken pop culture as we know it, and invigorated Katt’s image within the comedy world, opening his back catalog of material up to a whole new generation of fans. What the younger viewers may not know, however, is that Katt Williams has been a comedy mainstay for decades now, with enough hilarious stand-up specials to fill a days-long binge, and enough film and television roles to rival it. Here’s a look into the life and career of the comedy truth-teller.

Early Life And Career Origins

Katt Williams was born in Cincinnati, Ohio in 1971. The comedian was raised in a home of strict Jehovah’s Witnesses, prompting him to seek legal emancipation at the age of 13. Though Katt was incredibly young at the time of his emancipation, he credits his penchant for reading and thirst for learning new things as primary foundations for his success. After leaving his family home as a teenager, Williams joined a traveling circus and began honing his craft as a comedian while sleeping on park benches.

By 1999, Katt Williams had established a burgeoning comedy career, eventually leading him to meet the casting team for the hit 2002 film Friday After Next. While reflecting on Katt’s casting, the film’s director Marcus Raboy stated, “When our casting director found Katt, I think he was living in his car. He had this shock of hair, like he had put his fingers in an electric outlet, and his front teeth were missing. He was like a wild character. In many ways, he stole the show. When Katt is focused, there’s nothing quite like him.”

Film And Television Roles

After landing the role of Money Mike in Friday After Next, Katt Williams would go on to appear in a host of major projects, consistently stealing the show with his unique persona and trademark comedic delivery. Williams lent his voice to the hit Adult Swim animated series The Boondocks as A Pimp Named Slickback, making a lasting impression on audiences with his hilarious take on the material. Before long, Williams would come to star in films such as Epic Movie, Norbit, First Sunday, and Scary Movie V.

More recently, Katt has appeared in bit parts in popular television series such as The Last O.G., Black-ish, and Atlanta. Though many fans are familiar with the comedian through his larger-than-life performances, his most prolific work is on the stage.

Prolific Stand-Up Career

Since taking the stage for his first full-length stand-up special in 2006, Katt Williams has released over a dozen 1-hour specials, each to raucous laughter heard around the world. Many of his early specials continue to build on his “pimp” aesthetic developed in roles like Money Mike and A Pimp Named Slickback. Williams has made deals with HBO, Comedy Central, Netflix, and a number of other distributors to release one of the most prolific stand-up comedy catalogs in the history of the industry. The comedian even appeared as a fictionalized version of himself in the video game Grand Theft Auto IV, performing stand-up comedy to an audience of Liberty City patrons.

Throughout his career, Katt Williams has seen his fair share of controversy, but as he states in his Club Shay Shay interview, he has receipts for all of his claims. His comedy often aims at political structures, societal norms, and conspiracy theories. Whether he’s calling out fellow comedians for joke theft, or dismantling radio hosts live on the air, Katt Williams is a hilarious performer with a razor-sharp wit and a known desire for exposing the truth.

Tony Yayo Likens Katt Williams Interview To Tupac’s “Hit ‘Em Up”

January 9, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Tony Yayo feels like Katt Williams unloaded a clip on the comedic world during his Club Shay Shay interview, similar to how Tupac targetted his foes on “Hit Em Up.” During a recent interview with Vlad TV, Tony Yayo chimed in on Katt Williams’ salacious conversation with Shannon Sharpe. The G-Unit rapper claimed that Katt Williams is almost like 50 Cent of the comedy world, especially when it comes to providing his unfiltered thoughts on current affairs.

Katt Williams general approach to comedy is undoubtedly why it resonates with people across the board. Yayo explained that the Friday After Next actor “says what he wants to say,” though his respect for Williams increased after witnessing the comedian get into the zone at 50 Cent’s show in Atlanta. He explained that Williams has the ability to turn his negative situations into a positive, such as when he got beat up by a 14-year-old and later, cracked jokes about the incident during a Brooklyn show.

Katt Williams Delivered The “Hit Em Up” Of Comedy

Although Tony Yayo says that he appreciates all of the other comedians that Williams dissed during the interview, he said that Katt remains unapologetically himself. While comparing the interview to Tupac’s “Hit Em Up,” he added that he relates to Williams. “He’s gon’ say what he wants to say,” Yayo said. “I’m like that. I say what I want to say, some people are just like that. What does he got to lose? He’s already a millionaire. He’s rich already.”

Katt Williams interview on Club Shay Shay has racked up 37 million views since its release last week. Throughout the interview, Williams slams a number of comedians, such as Tiffany Haddish, Kevin Hart, and others for their comedic chops. Although his feud with Hart garnered the most amount of attention, Williams recently revealed that he was going to go on tour with Kevin’s ex-wife, Torrei. We’ll see how that plays out. For now, check out Tony Yayo’s interview with Vlad above and sound off with your thoughts in the comments below.

January 7, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Katt Williams says he can’t remember the Migos ever being “financially unsuccessful” and, in turn, shot down a rumor about helping them out amid money troubles. He discussed the story during a recent appearance on the Club Shay Shay podcast that is producing headline after headline.

“I don’t think we ever as a nation can remember a time that the Migos were financially unsuccessful so for the record, I would assume that they’ve never needed Katt Williams’ financial assistance for anything.

I’m a pro-Black, non-racist. I really, really love Black people but I don’t love them more than other people. I love everybody. I’m a Black guy and I try to stick with that.”

January 6, 2024 by newhiphopnews

In a reposted VladTV segment from 2019, Faizon Love recalls how Katt Williams once pulled a gun on him. Williams and Love were beefing over money Williams reportedly owed Love.

The clip was reposted amid Love’s comments on Williams’ recent Club Shay Shay interview. “It’s hard to address lunacy, and hypocrisy, and downright ignorance. But it’s so funny how many people think this dumb, stupid motherf-cker is spittin’ truth. But that’s the internet I guess, you guys want to believe in something so bad. Listen to what he’s saying, he’s actually calling for help. He’s calling for help. None of the sh-t he says lines up with nothing,” Love said.

In a new clip, Faizon tears into Williams, claiming that none of his comments made sense. “It’s hard to address lunacy, and hypocrisy, and downright ignorance,” he begins. “But it’s so funny how many people think this d*mb, st*pid motherf*cker is spittin’ truth.

“Listen to what he’s saying, he’s actually calling for help,” he explains. “He’s calling for help.

Elsewhere in the bombastic interview, Williams invoked Jonathan Majors to explain why he doesn’t mess with white women. “You can be Kang the Conqueror and they can still take your rabbit a– down in two weekends,” Williams noted. His statement was to highlight the power white women hold over Black men.

Thank God for Meagan Good,” Williams added.

The comedian’s comments come weeks after a New York court found Majors guilty of misdemeanor reckless assault in the third degree and a violation of harassment. However, Majors was acquitted on additional charges of assault and aggravated harassment. The actor, who Marvel is replacing in the role of Kang the Conqueror, will be sentenced in February. Other people were spoken about less favorably. Chris Tucker, Cedric the Entertainer, and Steve Harvey.
