Ludacris Responds to Katt Williams with Freestyle
Earlier this week, comedian Kat Williams delivered a candid and explosive interview on Shannon Sharpe’s Club Shay Shay podcast. Throughout the conversation, Williams didn’t hold back, calling out several fellow comedians, including Kevin Hart, Steve Harvey, Cedric the Entertainer, and Rickey Smiley, citing issues such as plagiarism and lack of acting skills.
In the podcast, Williams also shared details of a meeting with the Illuminati, revealing that he and Ludacris were approached by the secret society to undertake a series of tasks aimed at elevating their careers. “There was a crossroads where we were both invited to an Illuminati thing. It had to be one or the other of us, and decisions had to be made. We were equal,” he recounted.
“One of us had to cut off all their hair and couldn’t do the sideburn thing no more with the points. The next person they said was going to get $200 million, because they were going to pay him $10 million per movie to do 20 films, 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 went further, suggesting, “One person ended up with a light-skinned ugly face wife; it’s part of what they give you.”
Ludacris, whose real name is Christopher Bridges, responded to Williams’ interview with a freestyle over Kanye West’s 2010 track, “Devil In A New Dress.“
