#KattWilliams vs Grown 7th Grade Man-Child (Full Video)

By now, I know everyone has seen the #KattWilliams memes floating around of him getting into a physical altercation with a reported 15 year old 7th grader, and coming out on the losing end of the stick.  Another "L" for Katt Williams, right? This year surely isn't starting off great for the legendary comic.

However, this morning, I awoke to find the full video of the altercation.  It shows what appears to be a friendly game of soccer, with Katt Williams playing with the kids, then culminating with a fight between Katt and said 7th grader.

Watch the video for yourself:

I still don't think that Katt should have allowed himself to get into a physical altercation with this kid.  It isn't a good look for his career, and he has the potential to face criminal and/or civil liability.  Instead of telling the young man to "come on", Katt should have told him to sit his bad ass down somewhere, and got another adult involved.  Still, I have questions. So, riddle me this :

1.  Why is this little boy 15 years old and in the 7TH GRADE? He's not a teen; he's a man-child.

2.  I'm sure others saw this crowd accumulating around Katt and this young man, so why were there no other adults trying to keep this altercation from occurring? Why did no adults try to defuse the situation, or at least, get control of the aforementioned man-child?

3.  Who raised this young man? Why did he feel comfortable mouthing off to a grown man? This boy has no respect for adults, obviously.

I'm not co-signing what Katt did, but watching the whole video definitely makes his actions understandable.

Amber, Kim, and Beyonce--Not Classism, Just Realism

 Recently, Amber Rose came under fire from the Beyhive, and many others as well, for making a very faulty, misleading comparison between herself and her sisterwife Kim, and Beyonce.  Now, I'm not a STAN for anyone (but my girl Fantasia), so I don't have anything to gain from bashing any of these ladies, and I won't.  However, I think there are some things that should be pointed out. Amber's reasoning as to why she and Kim are "slut-shamed", and not Beyonce, makes no sense. I can make my case in 3 simple points:


 1.  Beyonce IS OFTEN criticized for being overly-sexual. From her costumes to her dance to her song topics, she is considered by many to NOT be a role model for young girls. This nullifies Amber's position that only her and Kim are criticized for being sexual, and Beyonce isn't. It's just not true. 


2. Amber mentions that it's her and Kim's past that continue to cause them to be "slut-shamed" (I hate that word. I really do.). I wholeheartedly, passionately, shaking-my-head-til-I-get-a-damn-migraine disagree.  Both Kim and Amber continue to bring the remnants of their past into their present, and I suppose that has more to do with their characterizations than just what they did in the past.  What I respect about Amber is that she doesn't give a damn, though.  She owns it.  But if you "own" it, don't turn around and say "but don't call me that!", when that's exactly how you continue to
portray yourself in the media.

3. Referring to point #2, when Beyonce is not on stage performing, she presents herself in a very respectable manner--she presents as a MOTHER.  She understands that even though she is a grown ass woman, and has EVERY right to dress as she pleases, the ramifications of her actions exceed her lifetime. They will eventually seep into the life of her child.  So she acts like a mother, and dresses like one.  When was the last time you saw Beyonce post a "thirst-trap" to social media? Beyonce feels just as empowered clothed as she does performing on stage. Has nothing to do with her talent. Has EVERYTHING to do with how she carries herself.

I used to be a hoe, and if someone called me a "hoe", what was I to do? It was the truth.  My thing is, if that's what you want, do it. Own it.  But don't expect people to stop calling you on it.  It is what it is.  I'm all for #WomensEmpowerment and #WomensRights. I'm also for keeping it real, and I'm just being real.

Katt and Kevin--Ain't No #Illuminati, Bih!

via Sandra Rose

Update 3/7/2016:  Katt Williams Gets Jumped at a Beanie Sigel show in Philadelphia  (Yall, Katt has some serious issues going on.  Instead of blaming the "Illuminati", it's time to face the fact that Katt needs help, and until he is able to get the help that he needs, he will continue on this roller coaster of erratic behavior, which may eventually lead to him being seriously hurt or even killed.)

Original Post

 I haven't blogged in a minute, but then came Katt! Katt Williams, that is!

Katt has been in the news lately because of some very inflammatory things that he said about Kevin Hart during a recent comedy performance. Katt insinuated that Kevin's success was due to performing sexual acts (oral and/or anal) for "industry people", and that he was a puppet for the same.  Now, as far as anyone knows, this attack was unprovoked and came completely out of left field.  If this was just for publicity on behalf of Katt Williams to boost show attendance, or whatever the reason may be, remains to be seen. Now, Katt's allegedly apologized (I haven't seen the video), and been arrested, and of course, it's being blamed on the "Illuminati"! However, I think there is a little something else going on, and AIN'T IT AIN'T NO ILLUMINATI, BIH!

Since the idea of the "Illuminati" was introduced to a generation that is, to say the least, gullible and willing to believe anything, anytime an entertainer has unprecedented success or unforeseen failure, you have folks that are quick to exclaim "it's the Illuminati!" or "it's the industry coming after him". Really, people? My personal opinion is that anyone that believes that the "Illuminati" is responsible for an entertainers successes or failures does not believe in, or respect, a little thing called "personal accountability".  Now, I'm not naive. Do I believe that there are cliques of individuals that have money and power that are movers and shakers in the industry, and have the power to make or break careers? Yes. I also believe that we are accountable for our actions, and that choices we make influence the path that our lives may take, whether that be positive or negative. Folks say that Jay Z is "Illuminati". So, the fact that he was grinding at 17, even opening local NY shows for BIGGIE SMALLS, has nothing to do with it, huh? Jennifer Hudson sacrificed her family for fame--what about the fact that she was singing on a cruise ship, paying dues, way before American Idol? But it's all due the "Illuminati", huh? The fact that many people work hard to get where they are just has nothing to do with it. Oh, ok.

Let's look at the logic of whether or not Katt Williams is under attack by the "Illuminati".  Katt Williams is known for the antics that we have seen in the tabloids and blogs this week.  If you do the research, you will see that Katt's violent outbursts and unpredictable behavior is almost cyclical.  Katt has periods where he is "way up", followed by periods where he is "waaaaay down". During these periods, his behavior is unpredictable and erratic.  It's during these times, when we have seen him doing well, that he (to us), suddenly begins to have violent outbreaks and starts going to jail. I'm no psychiatrist, but Katt does exhibit the behaviors of a person with bipolar disorder. Do you know how many mugshots Katt has? Look it up. He even talked about his issues on the Arsenio Hall Show. So, for one to say that he is going through these issues because he attacked Kevin Hart and is now under attack, makes no sense at all. This has been Katt's M.O. for YEARS! It has been reported by someone that claimed to be a friend of Katt's, that Katt Williams has mental issues, and that during times when he is not taking his medications, or not taking them correctly, that we start to see this strange behavior from Katt Williams. It makes PERFECT sense. Mental illness is real, and nothing to be ashamed of.  Katt's attack on Kevin was likely due to these same issues. So was his subsequent arrest.

Let's look at this again, LOGICALLY! If Katt Williams is under attack from the "Illuminati" because he attacked Kevin Hart, then why is Mike Eppes having one of the most successful years of his career? Mike, in several radio interviews, with "hateration" dripping from his tongue, came out and publicly bashed Kevin, on more than one occasion.  So...what...the "Illuminati" doesn't like Mike enough to give him a second thought, but they'd rather come after Katt? If Kevin was a "puppet" for the industry, as Katt called him, wouldn't Mike be under attack to? Yet, he has a new movie and several tv projects coming out this year.  Go figure, huh?

All I'm saying is, folks, let's use some common sense. Yall blaming everything on the "Illuminati"...well, I ain't calling you stupid, but you do have some "stupidish characteristics". I'm just saying. Yall making my damn head hurt. Let's just pray for Katt.  He's one of my favorite entertainers, and I would love to see him reach his true comic genius potential. Forget this "Illuminati" BS and #PrayForKatt. (P.S. The "Illuminati" yall need to be worried about is spelled "T-R-U-M-P". So get out and vote!)
