Dave
Chappelle
isn’t
happy
with
how
Katt
Williams
bashed
other
Black
comedians,
voicing
his
opinion
about
it
at
a
recent
show
in
Hollywood.
Katt
Williams’
recent
podcast
interview
with
Shannon
Sharpe
blasting
other
comedians
like
Cedric
the
Entertainer
and
Steve
Harvey
has
sparked
a
lot
of
conversation
and
some
dismay.
It
has
rubbed
Dave
Chappelle
the
wrong
way,
and
he
spoke
about
it
while
appearing
at
MonDeRays,
an
event
at
the
Hollywood
Improv
hosted
by
fellow
comic
DeRay
Davis.
“What
part
of
the
game
is
this?
He
ethered
n**gas.
He
didn’t
say
anything
about
any
of
these
white
boys.
None
of
these
white
boys
function
like
that,”
Chappelle
said
at
the
event
Friday
(Jan.
19).
“Katt
is
one
of
the
best
painters
in
the
game.
So
why
are
you
drawing
ugly
pictures
of
us?
Stop.
Hurt
people
hurt
people,
but
I
am
a
hurt
person
that
never
hurt
people,
and
he
does
it
all
the
time,”
Chappelle
said
before
going
into
an
impression
of
Williams
during
the
Club
Shay
Shay
interview.
“‘F**k
this
one,
and
f**k
that
one,
and
f**k
this
one,’”
then
adding
in,
“But,
n**ga,
I
didn’t
hear
anything
that
you
did
wrong.
He
didn’t
do
nothin’
wrong?
Katt
didn’t
do
nothin’
wrong?…
Katt
was
talking
about
s**t
that
n**gas
did
to
other
n**gas,
but
not
about
anything
that
n**gas
did
to
him.”
The
comedian
questioned
why
Williams
would
air
his
grievances
like
that
when
“all
of
us
are
trying
to
be
in
a
better
situation.”
Later
adding:
“If
I
told
my
story,
it
would
break
your
heart…
I
lost
everything
and
never,
ever
told
on
anybody,
and
this
n**ga’s
the
arbiter
of
truth.”
Davis
attempted
to
interject
to
defend
Williams
by
stating
it
was
good
for
comedy
(similar
to
a
claim
made
by
Marlon
Wayans),
but
Chappelle
would
brush
it
aside.
“You
know
why
I
disagree?
Because
I
put
a
special
out
the
same
day.
It
was
fine.
And
this
n***a
came
out
[and
said],
‘I
read
6,000
books
…
what
the
f—k
is
you
talking
about?”
Chappelle’s
latest
Netflix
special,
The
Dreamer,
premiered
Dec.
31,
2023.
It
was
notable
that
Chappelle’s
words
were
captured
by
someone
in
the
audience
–
the
comedian
has
often
employed
a
“no
smartphones”
policy
at
his
performances
in
recent
years.
The
Club
Shay
Shay
interview
with
Katt
Williams,
which
premiered
Jan.
3,
has
52
million
viewers
to
date.
