In the world of comedy, a new feud is making waves, and this time it involves two heavyweight comedians – Katt Williams and Kevin Hart.
The drama unfolded during Williams’ recent appearance on Shannon Sharpe’s “Club Shay Shay” podcast, where he unleashed a verbal onslaught targeting fellow comedians and entertainers, with Kevin Hart squarely in his crosshairs.

Williams didn’t mince words, accusing Cedric the Entertainer of lifting one of his jokes “word for word” from the nineties. Taking a swipe at Kevin Hart, he labeled him an industry “plant,” suggesting that Hart’s rise to stardom wasn’t organic.

According to Williams, Hart had movie deals lined up before even hitting Los Angeles, raising questions about the authenticity of his success.

The comedic veteran emphasized his objections to specific themes in Hart’s content, urging for humor without unnecessary stereotypes. Williams expressed frustration with perceived industry dynamics and gatekeeping, challenging the narrative that there are no gatekeepers in Hollywood. He even revealed turning down offers with compromising demands, including a shocking encounter with disgraced film producer Harvey Weinstein.

In his candid rant, Williams also called out Steve Harvey for allegedly lifting the premise of Mark Curry’s sitcom and engaged in controversies surrounding Michael Jackson, R. Kelly, and even faced backlash for discussing allegations against Diddy.

Kevin Hart responded to the criticisms on Twitter, advising Williams to let go of his anger and shifting the focus to promote his upcoming Netflix comedy, “Lift.” In a playful jab, Hart encouraged everyone to check out the movie trailer, hinting at a moment where his co-star seemingly references Williams.

The back-and-forth continued with Hart retaliating during a Friday night NBA Unplugged broadcast, injecting humor into the Knicks vs. 76ers game by joking about Williams supposedly buying and returning the New York Knicks.

This isn’t the first time these two comedians have clashed. The history of their rivalry dates back to 2014, with public spats, challenges, and even a $5 million bet proposed by Williams in 2016. The saga took a turn in 2018 when Williams targeted Tiffany Haddish, drawing Hart into the defense. The banter continued over the years, with both comedians taking shots at each other in interviews and social media.

The recent podcast appearance has reignited the feud, prompting responses from Cedric the Entertainer and others targeted by Williams. The comedic world is eagerly awaiting Katt Williams’ response to Hart’s tweets and the ongoing banter, adding another layer of humor to this long-standing clash between two comedy giants. Stay tuned for the next move in this entertaining saga.
