Plus Katt blew up years before Kevin.‘Kevin’s slot was for Katt’
Bullshyt it was.
This is my problem with the revisionist history. Katt Williams for all his Mensah alleged comedy brilliance and being above the fray….became famous portraying a pimp. A complete minstrel. He was never going to be a Hollywood leading man. There is no scenario no matter who was around where Katt Williams is starring in an action flick with the Rock, or even ice cube
Kevin hart has become like jay z, an easy punching bag bc people feel justified to punch up, and people suspend reality and act like everyone has the same skill set and coulda been them. Katt = a big L, or dmx. It SOUNDS good to say they woulda had jay’s spot but everyone is not built for the same things. Jay was never gonna act like dmx, and dmx could never seamlessly operate in both worlds street and corporate. Nor could Big L.
Hate that these old head comedians are so light on Katt the material is all there it’s as if no one is acknowledging his entire brand is a shtick.
If there was a slot, Katt fumbled it then
