Katt Williams Live

---

Thank you. 100.9 the Wiz.

Blazing hip hop and R and B.

Jamming in the building right now.

Man, it's just an honor

to have this guy just stop by just to say hi

and say what's up to Cincinnati.

My man Katt Williams in the house.

Say, Katt,

you doing some big things there, man.

What's actually going on?

What's bringing you back to Cincinnati?

You know, this is my place of origination,

so the first thing you want to do

if you make any success,

is you want to go back to where it started,

and you want to try

to put something back there.

And I'm not really interested in whatever

political issues are involved with that.

My concern is, you know...

First of all, let me say

that I do want to respect

other people's opinion

and what they're doing

in a very serious situation.

So I don't take the boycotters lightly at all.

On the other hand, I am a public official.

I am beholden to the public,

and I view my job

as seriously as a fireman does his job.

So a fireman goes where the fire is and tries

to put out the fires. That's what he does.

I'm a comedian. I make people laugh,

and the best people to make laugh

are the people that are hurting.

So I go where people are hurting,

and I stand on the stage,

and I make people laugh

for an hour and a half, two hours.

Now, if you think that that's so serious,

you feel like that's something

that shouldn't be done by me,

then I'm sorry.

We just have a difference of opinion.

That's good. That's a good thing,

and, you know, I applaud you for that,

especially remembering home.

A lot of people don't.

They kind of leave

where they say they're from,

and then they never want to come back

and give back,

which is good 'cause you bringing in

some healing, 'cause I...

Comedy is healing to me.

You know, when I want to go get something

off my mind, I go to a comedy show.

- Right.

- You know, 'cause it makes you laugh.

For you to come here

and bring some healing, that's, like, wow.

- You should be applauded for that.

- I appreciate that.

Yeah, I mean, I can't fix the problems.

I just got some Bactine and some Band-Aids.

That's my job.

I can't heal you,

but I can put a little...

I can put a little salve on it for a second.

I just want to let everybody know

exactly what is going down.

What can they expect on the 25th

at the Taft Theatre?

Yeah, exactly. I wanted to, you know, come

take the temperature of the town real quick.

You know what I mean?

I had to hit the streets.

Yesterday, I went to a couple of schools,

hit a couple of streets in Avondale,

turned a couple of corners.

You know, just trying to talk to some folks

out there on the street

and see what they think about me coming.

- 'Cause that's really my concern.

- Okay, the people.

- Yeah, exactly.

- It's all about them anyway.

Hey, please don't forget the hood.

If you forget the hood,

the hood will forget you.

CHRIS:
You know that's right.

That's how you end up

real, real light-skinned in court

with the Moslems around you.

Beat it!

Too late now!

We need you to be a Negro

in your time of goodness.

There you go. There you go, man.

I want to thank you for coming out here,

man, and just spending time with us here.

You're always welcome.

You know the doors are always

wide open for you.

I appreciate you, dawg. For real.

No problem, Katt.

No problem, man. Thanks a lot for having us.

And thanks a lot for doing this in Cincinnati.

Lord knows we need it.

Well, you know,

this is where the pimping came from.

You got to bring pimping to the birthplace.

- You gotta come... You're right. You're right.
