Williams sent shockwaves through the internet earlier this year with his candid interview on Club Shay Shay alongside Shannon Sharpe, where he fearlessly called out the comedy industry and sparked heated discussions. His bold commentary garnered over 50 million views and drew responses from fellow comedians across the board.

During the interview, Williams didn’t hold back, taking aim at various figures in the entertainment world. Notably, he accused Kevin Hart of being a product of Hollywood manipulation, suggesting that Hart’s success was artificially inflated. Williams questioned Hart’s grassroots rise in the industry, igniting a fiery exchange of words between the two comedic heavyweights.

Hart, seemingly unfazed by Williams’ remarks, took to Twitter to respond, urging Williams to let go of his anger while promoting his upcoming Netflix film, “LIFT.” Despite the tension, Hart remained focused on his projects, showcasing a lighthearted approach to the situation.

The release of “Woke Foke” coincides with Netflix’s acclaimed comedy festival, Netflix is a Joke Fest, running from May 2 to May 12. The festival boasts a star-studded lineup, including comedy icons like Jerry Seinfeld, Trevor Noah, Ali Wong, and Chris Rock, among others. With performances set to take over renowned Los Angeles landmarks, the event promises to be a celebration of laughter and entertainment.

As Katt Williams prepares to take the stage once again, fans eagerly anticipate his return, ready to experience his unique brand of humor and unfiltered commentary in “Woke Foke.”
