Katt Williams has never been one to hold back, and his most recent interview made that crystal clear: he has no plans to stop calling out what he sees as the truth in Hollywood.
During a sit-down with Big Boy TV on Super Bowl Sunday, Williams spoke candidly about comedy, celebrity, and why he’s comfortable saying things others avoid. “Let me explain something to you,” he said during the discussion. “I’m not scared to say nothing. I’ll say it.”
According to Williams, that outlook was shaped by years of operating outside the industry’s traditional systems. He reflected on funding and producing several of his early stand-up specials on his own, noting that he always had a clear understanding of his worth.
“I knew my actual worth,” he said, explaining that trusting his value made the risk worthwhile.
Williams also touched on his now-iconic 2024 appearance on Club Shay Shay, which sparked renewed discussions around celebrity culture and power dynamics. He shared that the moment was intentional and carefully thought out, meant to spark conversation without completely dismantling careers.
“The knockout punches were taken out,” he said, describing his remarks as calculated “jabs” designed to demand accountability without total damage.
Throughout the interview, Williams kept circling back to the idea of control—over his voice, visibility, and even his absence. He spoke about deliberately choosing when to step into the spotlight and when to pull back, not as avoidance, but as strategy.
“I’m disappearing to do the behind-the-scenes work,” he explained.
That mindset extends to his latest project, Katt Williams: The Last Report, set to premiere on Netflix on February 10. The hour-long special continues his run of unapologetic commentary, following 2024’s Woke Foke, 2022’s World War III, and 2018’s Great America.
Directed by Troy Miller, the new special draws inspiration from Williams’ life outside of Hollywood, including time spent on a farm he bought several years ago.
Beyond the special, Williams is also on the road with The Golden Age Tour, which launched nationwide in January.
And even after decades in comedy, he says the dialogue is far from finished. “Every time they see me,” he said, “I’m just picking up where we left off.”
