Showdown in Motown: Katt Williams vs. Steve Harvey

Posted by Bossip Staff

katt-and-steve

It’s about to go down between Katt Williams and Steve Harvey:

A new standup comic beef has emerged between Katt Williams and Steve Harvey – mostly on Williams’ part – that is expected to be settled during a head-to-head battle on New Year’s Eve in Detroit.

Instigating from the sideline is fellow comic Jamie Foxx, who joined co-hosts of his Sirius XM FoxxHole radio show on Dec. 19 to comment on the absurdity of Williams calling out Harvey in advance of their Dec. 31 show.

First, Foxx plays a clip of Williams dissing Harvey. “I wanna apologize for what’s gonna happen,” Williams said of the joint comedy gig. “But the second that you get on stage, I need you to understand that that’s your final time as the ‘King of Comedy.’ Water seeks its own level, you can’t stop it playboy. It is what it is, so I hope you’re ready. I hope you got a team of writers. You gonna need about six or seven of ‘em….”

Steve Harvey then calls in and says he’s baffled by the whole thing. “I’ve always been cool with Katt. He said in an interview that back in LA, I didn’t know who he was,” Harvey told Foxx and crew. “I mean understand, I didn’t know who he was when I was on the radio in LA. He hadn’t been in any movies or anything, and the brother was just not that known. He was talking about me in the clubs, and I just asked on the radio, whoever Katt Williams is, to call me.

“He called me, we straightened it out. We became friends. We’ve been cool ever since, so I thought.”

On a serious note, Katt Williams came hard, so he better be prepared with some new sh*t. Bossip folk, what’s the business? Is Katt gonna take the crown, or is Steve Harvey gonna put his little ass in time out…forever?

Here’s the audio of Katt going at Steve below. SMH

…and Steve’s response is…

    first! scrubs


  2. Why is Steve so orange?

  3. SMH

    NEXT.. ————————>

    :)

  4. SMH

    ALSO, BOSSIP YA’LL ARE WRONG FOR PHOTO-FIXING THAT PICTURE OF STEVE. WE ALL KNOW HIS CHEST IS HAIRY AND THAT HE HAS *****.

    SMH :(

  5. liquidsmoke72

    Katt Williams needs to fall back, Steve will continue to hold the crown.

  6. STEFANY

    I personally don’t care for either one, especially Katt Williams, he’s soooo over rated and mildly funny. Katt has a really f-up attitude, I hope he never returns to stage.

  7. Joey Boats

    Yo Steve get him!

  8. TONE.AYE

    My mans (orange glo) Steve Hightower is gonna pimp slap Money Mike.. The F*ck was he thinking.

  9. Mrs. Rance

    Look who said those guys were the Kings of Comedy anyway? THEM. In the Kings of Comedy movie, Bernie Mack was the only one I even found funny. DL Hugley and Steve Harvey have never gotten a laugh out of me in thier whole stand-up careers. They’re good in sitcoms though. The only ones who could possibly wear the crown of King since Richard Pryor’s retirement are Eddie Murphy and Chris Rock. All four “kings” are a far cry from those two and they ain’t really touching Martin Lawrence either. Kat’s drunk ***** ain’t even in the running.

  10. Nicole

    Personally I think Steve is going to tap that *****. I can’t stand Katt Williams, I don’t think he is funny at all. Katt needs to sit his crazy ***** down. He’s already armed Steve with all the new material he needs with his recent cRaZy behavior. If he’s not careful his little feelings could really get hurt.

  11. Hannibal

    DAVE CHAPPELLE IS BETTER THAN BOTH OF THESE *****S…

  12. Mrs. Rance

    Oh and how can I forget Dave Chappelle. Them dudes ain’t kings of no dang comedy.

  13. Xquisite

    Katt Williams ..no contest..but he didn’t have to start a beef with Steve..but it does make for great ticket sales..

  14. Lady Architect

    I’M SORRY BUT IS KATT SERIOUS? HE’S A PRETTY GOOD COMIC, BUT HE’S AN AMATEUR COMPARED TO STEVE HARVEY WHO HAS NOT ONLY DONE THIS FOR YEARS, BUT CAN ALSO DO A FULL SHOW WITHOUT CURSING AND STILL HAVE PEOPLE CRYING. i LIKE THEM BOTH, BUT kATT IS OUT OF HIS LEAGUE ON THIS ONE. DIDN’T HE JUST GO CRAZY RECENTLY?

  15. ThatBKChick

    First of all…it’s Karma on Steve. Steve did some shady azz stuff to Bernie Mac (R.I.P.) and I am tired of his ol horse face fake azz…he had the audacity to turn up at Bernie’s funeral and talking all like they were cool!! To let you guys know what Steve did, he called Brad Pitt/George Clooney, at the time they are and were the producers of the Ocean Eleven-Thirtheen Sequels, when Bernie was trying for the part, and told them that basically not to hire Bernie and that he would be better and some other shady azz ish!!! That’s why Bernie moved forward and Steve’s movie career stalemated!!! SMDH!!!

    Katt Williams on the other hand needs medication and mental help. He honestly should not be throwing stones and he know he is not right in the head right now….He got the Dave Chapelle Syndrome and lost his mind for a min….but please STFU Katt!!!

  16. shavondenise

    Hell to the naw!! Katt hanging around with them Dip Set haters too much. Them b*tch made dudes that think that they have to hate on anyone who is a threat to them. I mean that to me is disrespectful for Katt to even come at Steve like that because Steve actually has paved ways for him. He had his on show andhas been in movies for over a decade now so to minimized that because you’ve JUST became hot is immature. I feel like Katt needs help because the Katt I saw in the beginning when he was doing his stand up was a real dude who just told it like it is and didnt hate. Stop hanging round’ all those young/old 40 year old fake rappers Katt. Some people, like Nas said, are in their second childhood and thats a sin.

  17. PURPPLE

    LMAO,thats not Steve Harvey body…


  18. @Mrs Rance

    I agree. I don’t qualify lines that start with, “Black people…” as comedy.

  19. Mrs. Rance

    Yeah, I think Eddie Murphy, Chris Rock, Martin Lawrence and Dave Chappelle should come out with a movie called The Real Kings of Comedy. Oh yeah, they can’t because each of their individual price tags are higher than DL, Steve and Ced put together. Bernie was too good to even be in that group.

  20. Hannibal

    @MRS. RANCE

    I AGREE WITH EVERYTHING U SAID IN THIS POST…

  21. quietstorm372

    steve harvey was funnier early in his career, but katt is going to squash him. Tee-tee get steve’s last standup check, because its a wrap. But he’ll at least still have his radio gig.


  22. I’ll take Steve…Katt cuss too much…

  23. shavondenise

    @ ThatBKChick:

    I did hear that Steve was throwing salt in Mac’s game and I also heard Mac hate on Steve’s show saying that it was corny or something. They both had their egos because the stars of The Kings of Comedy and really the only one’s that were funny enough to be on the stage were Steve and Bernie. I think thats when that male ego crap came in. DL even said that he tried to squash the beef between them before Bernie died. There’s alot to that story that we all will never know but thats how Black Hollywood has to be sometimes because the industry only wants one of everything when it comes to Blacks. One actress, one actor, one comedian in everything. Like how many Reese Witherspoon’s are there. A million.

  24. Crush on Joey B

    UMMMM… KAT VS. STEVE = APPLES VS. ORANGES THIS PICTURE OF STEVE IS MORE OFFENSIVE THAN KAT THINKING HE’S A BETTER COMIC, NOW WHO’S BODY THEY DONE PHOTO SHOPPED HIS BODY ONTO. not comedy

  25. Tink

    WILL THIS BE ON A DVD…

  26. Crush on Joey B

    oop…head

  27. politicker19

    OMG, Steve was never funny…In fact, him and D.L. should’ve never been given the the name ‘Kings’?!? They’re so NOT funny!!

    I thought Kat was corny when he first came out on Nick Cannon’s show…but then I saw him do stand up and couldnt stop laughing!! I think it’s his time and he’s doing the damn thing…but on a sidenote, you dont need to bring others down on your way to the top..he still needs to have respect for goofy Steve…

  28. uptowngirl

    Neither of them is that funny so whateva.

  29. ThatBKChick

    @shavondenise

    Thank you for clearing that up…it’s unfortunate that they did not clear it up before Bernie got sick….anyway, I never been a big Steve Harvey fan. I am even more sickened to know what he did to his wife/son. You guys need to read up on this dude. I have an aunt that lives in Atlanta, near Steve’s ex-wife and I heard that this idiot only gets away with paying her $2000 a month? And recently as two/three weeks ago, the child protective services were called on Steve when he had visitation custody of their son (apparently Steve must have put a whooping on the child).

    Whatever the case, a person true character is a reflection on how they treat their loved ones…SMDH!!!

  30. Redd Tony

    Steve shouldnt even bother, he dont need this type of publicity in my opinion….

  31. politicker19

    “Look who said those guys were the Kings of Comedy anyway? THEM. In the Kings of Comedy movie, Bernie Mack was the only one I even found funny.

    I couldnt agree more Mrs. Rance

  32. Redd Tony

    I find the earlier part of DL’s carreer to be his most funniest

  33. Nina Knows

    We need black comics to support each other.

    why the hell are blacks so competitive amongst themselves. Katt should just shut up. and who cares what steve did to bernie… that’s between them.

    The Kings of Comedy wasnt about being better than other black comics. They were trying to bring black comedy to the forefront, reconizing people who had done it for many years already.

    The kings of comedy was about black comedy. PEROID.

  34. Guest

    SMH@ everybody saying Steve is so orange. That pic is from Jet when he was celebrating turning 50.

  35. Encyclopedia Brown

    YO!!! The Steve Harvey pic just ruined my vision! Why on earth would you post pictures of nude old men Bossip???

  36. Toxicity

    Damn, I didn’t know there was hate between Bernie Mac and Steve… I listen to Steve’s show and you mean to tell me through all that preaching about being a better Christian he couldn’t find peace with his Bernie! And what’s even worse I remember Steve making multple appearances on all these radio and news talk shows about the death of his friend and how he was so sad. To find out he was hating HARD like that. SMH…


  37. [...] first collected Added 29 Dec 08 from bossip.com Flag as inappropriate or [...]

  38. Nina Knows

    um, even IF steve had a situation with bernie, doesnt mean he wasnt hurt behind his death.

    Some people are stupid.

  39. Toxicity

    Anyway, both of them are funny and find humor in different things. I like them both.
    Sorry Katt for someone putting something in your weed that made you go Beserk!!


  40. Didn’t Kat Williams just get out the crazy house???

  41. c from stl

    First and foremost, while everybody is bull*****tin’, Katt just might get with Steve. I personally have never found Steve Harvey that funny but I laugh till my stomach hurts at Katt Williams. Steve is certainly overrated as a comic and Bernie Mac was honestly the only one I could consciously call a ‘King’ of comedy. We shall see….


  42. i already got my ticket for me and my sister im a comic my self so i love to be at comedy shows its intriguing to me!!! it will be hilarious!!! steve is a funny guy and hopefully kat has his ***** together
    @ everyone
    happy holidays

  43. Toxicity

    I think the fact that he was lying to the press about his close friendship with Bernie, and when he died he had to back pedal. No one doubted his grief and we can only speculate whether it was from sadness or guilt.


  44. Where’s JuJu?

  45. barb

    does ***** wonka know that steve left the chocolate factory?
    god damn!!

  46. vickie

    they are both good comedians. why are they competing with one another.

  47. Another day

    Forget all this what is up with these allegations about Steve abusing his son and not looking out for his ex wife that been with him before it all. No doubt he could take out this midget in a bathrobe (there is just so much material there) and he’s not even all that funny. Katt is a cl*****ic example of someone who did a few things and his head got too big for his body he should still be humble, quit smoking up all that ooowee, and respect. SH is a grown man that been doing this thing for years and is not going anywhere, Katt on the other hand got one more shot to tell a brand NEW joke or exit stage LEFT.


  48. @ThatBKChick

    That’s all he pays for child support?

    I KNOW ya’ll have seen Ol Steve with the gator shoes, cuff links, and the zoot suits with the bracelets and chains.

    Come one Steve…don’t be stingayyyy….

  49. Vee (its Bossladee if u nasty)

    I dont like either one of them but I cant STAND Katt Williams. He’s far too ignorant and boisterous for me to tolerate. Furthermore, since he just got released from a mental hospital I’d think he’d shut up and worry about getting himself together. As for Steve, if he’s being truthful about becoming more spiritual he needs to take the high road and ignore that fool.


  50. I agree with Another Day, Katt needs to be a little bit more humble, and the audience that Katt appeals to and the audience that Steve appeal to are two different crowds of people, so Katt is one welfare paycheck from being homeless and walking into a hotel with slippers on bragging about how much money he has in the bank.


  51. or use to have in the bank….

  52. cherry

    I dont know who to believe. I remember reading a Bernie Mac interview some time ago where he talked about how steve harvey AND his agent tried take his role in Charlies Angels. Bernie talked about how hurt he was that his “friend” had done that to him. Katt Williams may very well be right that when Steve saw he was “down” he decided to get some base in voice and talk smack. Steve Harvey is funny though and he didnt have to accept the challenge. Katt Williams better come with some new material though. He’s pretty much sayin the same thing in every comedy show Ive seen.

  53. Mike

    Them *****s had me *****in weak haaaaaaaa

  54. RealComedy

    Both of them are funny however, if Katt doesn’t come up with some new material, its sad for him!!!

    His first DVD was funny, but the others were wack because it carried most of the same material as the first. Steve on the other hand has been in the game for so long with 5 DVDs, stand up experience etc.

    I think Katt is trying to boost ticket sales which is not needed because people is going to fill up the place to see both of them but it’s obvious he’s been smoking too much ganda!!!

  55. maxxjulien11

    I think its a great idea, Comedians battling..Between the two, I think Steve would blow, mini-pimp out the water…But one comic that could blast both of these guys, would be Mike Epps..

  56. Monie

    Why are ya’ll making me gag showing that pic of Steve ‘man breast’ Harvey?!

  57. Lush-Us Lipps

    Steve Harvey’s pic…..triple EWEEEEE!
    Katt Williams will “crush” Steve Harvey old *****. He can hang it up now… BTW, I never thought he was that funny anyway.

  58. Toni M

    I am not a fan of Katt’s. HOWEVER i bought *cough* both of their newest specials katt’s called something ignant like “pimpin”…Harvey’s is “still trippin”. I turned steve’s off after bout 40 laugh-free minutes. Katt’s was actually not as ignant as he wants ppl to believe and entertaining. I think Katt would BLOW STEVE OUT DA WATER.

  59. Meeko From Detroit (Support The Big 3)

    Yo the show will be here. its official and then this ***** is a publicity stunt. i got my front row tickets for christmas. its about to goooo down.

    Katt Williams can sit his ***** down. Steve Harvey became a christian but he surely will be a devil on this one.

    Detroit Love Baby….come and get some

  60. DaddyO

    Katt Williams is not that funny… neither is Steve Harvey. But Katt Williams material isn’t very thought proviking. I think the question is, which one of these brothers will you remember in 20 years. IMO, Katt will be remembered (if at all) for his off stage antics while Harvey will be remembered for his TV show.

  61. Mr. Sick

    What’s Up to all my Cool Bossipers,

    Just stop in for a few minutes.
    ********************************
    Steve vs. Katt or Katt vs. Steve
    *********************************
    5 min into the battle Katt is out on the mat.

    Wake the ***** up, Katt! Your 15 minutes is up.

    I’m with Steve ALLDAY cause that pimpin & weed ***** is old.

    Out of Time,

    Mr. Sick

    P.S. I will pay for the DVD if it’s for sale.

  62. Just Sayin

    The thing that is funny bout KW is his size and voice. All Steve got to do is go in where Katt didnt have any fronts when he first came out and continue on from there SH does not have the funniest stand up I ever heard but the way he bring it can be the most belitting (did I say Little and Katt) thing in the world and believe he will embarr***** Katt if he thinks he is small now wait til Steve”got my own radio show” Harvey get a hold of that %ss. Steve and Bernie may have had differences but if it was ongoing before BM death they handled it as men, got their bread their seperate ways and that was that this chump sh%t Katt is on is high school like he should have this beef with like Damon Williams (for lack of another persons name closer to katts age) or somebody. katt was just seen talking about how Jermaine doesnt go visit brat in jail and why isnt he minding his own business and working on new sh%t or is him showing up in public in his towel “it”?Something about very teeny men is such a turn off

  63. bogman1

    Jacky’s been calling this for a minute now!

  64. BlackLADYDoctor

    The both of them are funny, but none of them can CUTT better than the late great Bernie Mac and I won’t mention Richard Pryor.

    If I had to hang out with one of them it would be Katt Williams. I would love to watch him smoke that sheeit and whig out…and as he comes down from his HIGH get deeper than the Ocean.

    Steve Harvey tricked his wife into signing a divorce settlement where she didn’t get much and she helped him get to the level that he got to through sacrifice and finanicial support, so Steve is the 50 of comedy in my opinion. This sounds like this will be a great thing for comedy…I love to laugh, I’ll be checkin’ for this battle.

  65. blaq

    I can’t remember the last time Steve Harvey was funny, I think Cedric took any crown he may have had years ago. Love Katt, but ur suppose to respect your elders.

  66. What the...

    Black Hollywood beefs = *****ody working. Why can’t Steve be Steve and Kat do Kat? King(s) is plural right? Seriously this back bitting is gonna f’up some big things for 2009. 2009 is our year. Everybody else is finally calming the hell down with us and we got to step up our bull*****, on ourselves.

  67. Pedro Aka King Jaffe Joe

    Steve Harveys got this


  68. Katt Williams is so corny, he has nothing on Steve Harvey. I hate when these young dudes come on the scene and disrespect those who helped layed the way for them. I can’t wait to see Steve Layeth The Smacketh down on Mr. Katt Williams :)

  69. Pedro Aka King Jaffe Joe

    Katt williams is shook to bring it to Dave Chappelle . Chappelle would kill anyone


  70. @ What the…….

    Yes Kings is plural but Kat Williams was not in the origianl blue print! That’s like trying to take away Michael Jacksons title “King of pop” Kat Williams need to make his own name for his self

  71. GIVEDADDYSOMESUGAR

    Get the cradle ready for KitKat because Mr. Harvey is gonna make him cry like a baby. There ought to be a law against what Steve is about to do. Lawd, Lawd, Lawd!

  74. OhLaLa

    Katt Williams was on the radio this morning talking about Steve Harvey. All I got to say is wow! Katt dont give a *****. He had things to say about Jamie Foxx too. But hes right. Steve Harvey was never the King of Comedy…Bernie Mac was!! Steve is funny but he aint never been gut busting to me. I like when he does sister Odell tho.

  75. AAA

    It’s all publicity! I like them all so whatever!

  76. OhLaLa

    But Steve Harvey’s Morning show still sucks!!! He is sooooo arrogant its not funny!! Him or Nephew Tommy or them chicks they got with them. Steve should stick to stand up cuz hes much better at it.

  77. OhLaLa

    Mike Epps is funny in movies but his stand up rountine was HORRIBLE!!!

  78. OhLaLa

    Katt Williams also said he was retiring from stand up this morning….this will be his last show….I DOUBT THAT!!


  79. Jamie Foxx is pulling a 50 Cent; he is such an instigator. I think they are both funny…and the way Katt is acting, he is obviously looking attention or want a come back because he knows he has to come like God if he is going to take Steve Harvey’s crown. Everybody is fighting for a title nowadays. People can be success without putting down others. SMH

  80. Creole Baby isa Cash Money Stunna on his 14th Summa

    go smoke some ziggy zow you dirty j-makin

  81. FAJ

    I think they need to do a “little” battle with Martin Lawrence and Katt Williams… MARTIN will eat Katt UPPP! I hope Katt have some new material than just “Pimp S#$#@t”! That gets OLD after while!


  82. where the hell is the g.o.a.t richard pryor when u need him ? and the other real question who is cheddar and why does he get cheddar , anyone know where he is at so I can stop him from popping up on all my ***** …


  83. Get him steve. I’m sorry but Katt Williams is not funny. Steve is gonna go in and get him. Can’t wait to hear it.

  84. Roe ski Love

    Chris Rock will eat both of them for lunch. Dipset put it in Katts mind to start drama in order to increase ticket sales (Same as rap beef)In reallity if your good people will come out to see you no matter what. It should be interesting now, to see who falls off the map, more than likley it will be Katt because Steve can keep it going on his nationally syndicated radio show. Word to KATT dem dipset boys going to be your downfall, cause rap dosn’t mix well with comedy these days.

  85. KAM

    I DONT LIKE STEVE HARVEY, WOULD LOVE TO SEE KATT WILLIAMS MOP THE FLOOR WITH HIS BUBBA LIP *****. BUT AT THE SAME TIME, DIDNT KATT JUST HAVE AN “EPISODE” NOT TOO LONG AGO WHERE HE WAS REALLY DELUSIONAL? STILL IS. GO CHECK BACK IN.

  86. OhLaLa

    oops…this is not the one from today…sorry

  87. KAM

    I AGREE WITH SOME OF THE EARLIER POSTS. STEVE HARVEY NEVER WAS FUNNY TO ME. I HEARD ABOUT HOW HE DID BERNIE AND HAS HATED HIM EVER SINCE. WHEN I SAID KATT WAS STILL DELUSIONAL, I MEAN GOING AROUND STARTING *****. PARANOID PEOPLE DO THAT KIND OF *****.

  88. MrsT_n_DC

    Folks in the entertainment industry use “beefs” to generate buzz, ticket sales, revenue, etc. If/when they battle it out, hopefully both will bring their A game and new material, and treat all of us all to one helluva comedy show. In this battle, I vote for Steve with his syndicated TV and radio show money. Besides, Katt cusses way too much and that pimp mess is no longer funny (How you can be a pimp anyway when my 6 year old is taller than you?). Too bad Chris Rock cannot get in on the action. He’s my favorite of them all right now.

  89. Razzell Dazzell

    KAT…DIDN’T YOU JUST GET OUT OF THE MENTAL INSTITUTION THE OTHER DAY? SERIOUSLY, YOU GOTTA BE A CERTAIN HEIGHT TO RIDE CERTAIN RIDES AND YOU GOT TO BE IN THE SAME LEAGUE TO PLAY AGAINST CERTAIN TEAMS. THE SAME HOLDS TRUE FOR COMEDY. I DON’T CARE FOR STEVE LIKE THAT, BUT RESPECT WHAT THE GUY HAS DONE PROFESSIONAL. KAT, IS FUNNY, SERIOUSLY, DUDE, PEOPLE AREN’T CHECKING FOR YOU LIKE THAT. STEVE EITHER. MY GOODNESS, TICKET SALES MUST NEED A BOOST.

  90. osoreal

    Katt needs to stay in his place and respect his elders. Harvey paved the way for these young comics.


  91. jamie foxx ***** riding

  92. Sit Down Kat

    How ignorant?! Then again its Kat Williams. Why expect more? There is room for everyone. There is no need for childish beefs. While black folks are kicking each other down, white folks are starring in blockbusters and commanding high royalties for their work. Like the gentlemen in the Kings of Comedy, why can’t he do what he does while Steve do what he does. At the end of the day, everyone is paid and fans are happy.

  93. bococalady

    if steve harvey comes away from his religious spiritual side, i feel he can send the kat back to his litter box.

  94. Name Required

    I can’t wait til Katt talks about Steve’s Afro Hair piece

  95. ohnoudient

    Katt needs Steve to react, but like Steve said, dogs don’t bark at parked cars. Katt ain’t doing nothing but getting high and if he don’t get his ***** together, everybody will be asking “Katt who” in a minute. You can’t get anywhere if you’re high all the damn time. Don’t hate the player, hate the damn game. He should be taking notes on how the old heads did it, instead of tryin to bring that 50 cent ***** into comedy.

  96. ohnoudient

    neither one of them is funny anyway

  97. Lady L

    KINGS OF COMEDY, EDDIE MURPHY, MARTIN LAWRENCE, BERNIC MAC, AND RICHARD PRYOR. STEVE HARVEY IS NOT FUNNY TO ME NEITHER IS DL HUGLEY. OH YEAH AND CEDRIC THE ENTERTAINER I LIKE HIM TOO.


  98. I LOOOVVVEEE KATT WILLIAMS

  99. Misty Knight

    Ima need Kat to leave that narcotic be


  100. KATT WILLIAMS SHOW IS WORTH EVERY DIME


  101. MADDD LUV FOR KATT BUT I LOVE STEVE BUT FOR DIFFERENT REASONS ANYONE KNOWS WHEN HIS BOOK WILL HIT THE SHELVES


  102. MADDD LUV FOR KATT BUT I LOVE STEVE BUT FOR DIFFERENT REASONS ANYONE KNOWS WHEN HIS BOOK WILL HIT THE SHELVES?

  103. Southern Belle (everything that is good comes from here)

    katt is a good comedian but he cant top steve why is he even trying this mess but it will be funny to hear what they got to say!!!!!

  104. jucija1

    Bernie and Ced were the only funny Kings of Comedy. They were supposed to have KOC part II but Bernie said he didn’t want to work with Steve.

  105. brown sugar

    i love them both i hope its all in good fun.

  106. Yvonne

    The whole thing(whatever it is) is probably a publicity stunt for their show.

  107. Antonio

    Who gives a f*ck!!!

  108. lanette

    I ain’t crazy about either one but i’d have to go w/Steve Harvey on this. I don’t understand why Katt is bringing this kind of beef to comedy.

  109. memchee

    neither one of those guys are funny!

    Right now, we don’t even have a king of comedy.

    They neck n’ neck with each other!!!

  110. AngieLishus

    Katt Williams is Hilarious. Much respect for Steve Harvey…but, uhhh make room for some new talent. Don’t get it twisted either bc this is a publicity stunt. All bout them dizollas…please

  111. angel

    katt is KILLIN steve harvey, steve aint all dat funny katt is straight hood n straight hillarious only uptight people aint feelin katt. real recognize real

  112. A CONCERNED READER

    People, people, people…let me help you get something straight here. There is a difference between good STAND-UP comedians and SCRIPTED comedians. Mike Epps and Dave Chappelle (sorry to say) are examples of good script comedians. They can make you laugh in a movie with their stupidity. However, heir stand-up is garbage. WHy? Because they haven’t been around LONG ENOUGH to perfect their craft. But a good STAND-UP comedian, can do both. A good stand-up comedian started out in small towns trying to put together their trademark comedy that you see today. Honestly, Chris Rock, Steve Harvey, Martin Lawrence, Jamie Foxx, Eddie Murphy, Martin Lawrence and the late Bernie Mac ALL started out at the bottom under someone else’s wing learning all they could. They never tried to steal the spotlight and they didn’t step out of place. With respects to Katt, the point that Jamie is trying to make is that people MUST pay their dues in any industry before you start *****’ out folks that have been in the game for years (like Steve). Jamie is trying to help Midget Mac understand that all the best comedians paid their dues and never tried to disrespect the legends that were there before his time.

    Steve Harvey = Winifred Hervey = wrote/produced some sitcoms, like The Cosby Show.

    He has skills.

    Katt is certifiable, and admitting that will help deflect the inevitable attacks in that area.

  114. D@ Pop3

    Steve Harvey Is Not Even Funny..Im Going With Katt..

  115. SOMER

    I agree D@POP3. I have never thought Steve was funny. With Steve, the curse word is the joke. Katt is bout the only comedian I would pay to see at a larger venue but I don’t like what success is doing to him.

    I use to love Chris Rock but I will not give my hard earn money to a black man & half of his show is putting down black women. I don’t know what is going on with Chris but last April, he got my last $65 at the Fox in Atlanta.

  116. SOMER

    @a Concerned reader……that is a good point. I was wondering why the 1st & last time I saw Dave Chappelle doing stand up after his show ended, he was 2hrs of straight garbage. He is another one who will never get another dime from me.

  117. Lisa

    Ok, let’s keep it real people. This whole mess is just ignant’. But seriously, how wack is Mr. I got a new hairline, teeth etc. cause I used to look like (really I still do) a baby gorilla, Jamie Foxx, for instigating this Bull-ish! And Jamie u aint’ been funny since Whitney was a little crackish. You and your radio team were about as funny as Steve and his radio team. I’m from the NY and trust… THEY AINT’ FUNNY!!

  118. gails

    Katt should be ashamed of himself. He’s acting like a punk instead of a man. Katt is frontin’ and he doesn’t even have a reason to front. Katt is the little dog picking on the big dog to get some status. It’s a move used by punks and seldom is it successful.

    My money says that Steve is going fry Katt. Katt will be funny, but Steve’s humor will be piercing and lethal. Steve can be very mean and cruel. I think he’s come down hard on Katt.

    The pity is that Katt has given Steve no other alternative.

  119. westkoast

    All I want to know is when will Martin Lawrence do stand up again? I’d pay to see him, Chris Rock, and Bernic Mac (RIP) on a show. Kat’s aiite, Steve’s an O.G., but Martin makes me laugh like *****ody’s business. Somebody tell him to put down the Big Momma fat suit and get on stage somewhere.


  120. Hilarious Ive seen every comedian here mentioned in this list and not one of them is not funny. Lol humor is completely subjective – whats funny to one person could be different for the next. Dane Cook is good comedian , I dont find him funny but doesnt mean the cat doesnt have talent. Still wondering about where Chris Rock bashes black women , cause anyone familiar with Rock knows he takes shots at everyone. Dave Chappelle is worth every dollar , hell even the impromptu show he put on while in england for like 15 minutes was crazzy…


  121. And Harvey needs to lay off all that Tang..

  122. BKLYNZ OWN (back on my grizzley)

    STEVE HARVY= OSCAR DELA HOYA
    KATT WILLIAMS= PACKIAO (forgot his name)

    steve give it up dude


  123. Katt Daddy is official. Consider yourself warned!!

  124. Tink

    I think Steve Harvey is sooo funny, I bought his DVD and listened to iton the train ride home for the holiday. Let’s say I was in mixed company and I swear that they called the conductor on me cause I was laughing so hard. The blk people on the train found out that I was listening to steve harvey (watching) and I say I shared that DVD with at least 3-4 people. Steve Harvey is going to tear Katt Williams mouth out.

    This needs to be on DVD. I will even buy it…

  125. Detroit Hummingbirdee

    For all of you that say Steve Harvey is going to crush Katt Williams, you must be sipping haterade. I have seen Katt Williams live in Detroit twice and he is the truth. He talks about more than pimpin. He talks about kids, politics, news, and relationships. I was laughing the whole time he was on stage both times. Steve Harvey is a yawn and is not funny at all. Katt is going to murder him. NEXT!

  126. miss beatty

    This is Ree-*****-uh-liss!!!

  127. Lee

    Forget Katt and Steve….Jamie is freaking hilarious!


  128. King of Comedy was Richard Pryor so everyone else is just a runner up…but Katt can be the Pimp of Comedy and Harvey can be funny looking, big mustache(please no more pics of shirtless Harvey…what’s yall problem lately with these ugly ***** pictures, first Versace now this) and the only two people I know who are close in mu book to king is sir Paul Mooney and Eddie Murphy…matter of fact the Psuedo King of Comedy is Eddie Murphy then Chris Rock until one of them die

  129. Am I late

    Did you catch it too. He said kat williams blew his ***** and he kept calling kat a Legend..as in John Legend…Of course he is gay

  130. thatbrutha

    *****S WHY DOES SOMEONE HAVE TO TAKE THE CROWN? WHY ARE *****S SO CRAB LIKE? DAVE, RICHARD, RED FOXX THESE WERE CATS THAT COULD DO THEIR THINGS AND DO THEM TOGETHER ON THE SAME STAGE.
    CHRIS ROCK? WHAT AND ALL THESE LITTLE YOUNG PUNKS TALKIN TRASH IN HERE DON’T KNOW ***** ABOUT COMEDY ANYWAY..

  131. thatbrutha

    EDDIE MURPHY, WAS A KING OF COMEDY ONLY PROBLEM YOU LITTLE CLOWNS WERE STILL ON TIT WHEN EDDIE WAS DOIN HIS THING.
    HEY, *****S DON’T HAVE CL***** YOU DON’T SEE THE WHITE BOYS GOIN AFTER EACH OTHER LIKE THIS?!!! WTF, WTF

  133. Denise

    Oh my goodness no way Steve is funnier than Kat you have to force yourself to laugh at some of Steve jokes please give me a break even on the radio interview Kat was all over Steve. Steve got in maybe 2 good one that he recalled from his grand dad please talking about how original. He is not that funny with his body glow body oil.

  138. ms meca

  139. Ms Sharmaine

    Pubilicity Stunt 4 Real!

  140. Dot

    Speaking of hating, all of you need to step right on OFF of Katt! First of all, there is simply no contest between these two. Katt is clearly the champ. His facial expressions, use of simple props, comic timing, topics, everything is HILARIOUS! For those of you that think he cannot entertain without exclamatories, you are wrong, as I proved just last night when I shared much of his material from pimpin’ pimpin’ with a Christian, white, George Bush loving, straight as an arrow family that I know and love without the profanity and they were dying with laughter! So there! Steve Harvey has never made me even crack a smile via stand up, though his show did, but he has paved the way and I respect him for that! Then there is Katt’s life style – yeah he is SOOO fried up isn’t he? NOT! How many of you have adopted 7 kids from foster care? and offered them a home? How many has Steve adopted? That is a man with a heart of gold! His stock is priceless in my book! I never had the opportunity to see Katt on Wild N’ Out, and have only been aware of his existence for a few months, but I am a HUGE fan! I am a smart, beautiful, educated, black social worker and motivational speaker with a successful speaking business and a proven track record working with youth that have aged out of the foster care system, a cause that I am p*****ionate about. Can we not stop tearing each other down? Can we not support each other’s success? As for Katt’s mental state, those of you that have walked in his footsteps then judge. Katt is crazy alright ~ Hot and crazy like a FOX!!!!

  141. city

    why is everyone talking about kat and steve? neither of them are that funny.they both seem pretty arrogant to me. the real kings are bernie mac,chris rock, martin lawrence, eddie murphy, and tyler perry too even though no one has mentioned him.i’m not hating on steve or kat either. and i didn’t even know about steve’s beef with bernie. kinda makes me think twice about steve.


  142. I like Katt cuz he says whatever is on his mind, I like Steve but he’s to PG. But one thing D.L. Hugley DID NOT NEED TO BE ON KINGS OF COMEDY. RIP BERNIE

  143. kenya

    someone tell steve to please put on a shirt, and never take it off again, and until katt wears clothes that he’s not swimming in, i don’t want to hear anything he has to say. does he thing that wearing those big suits will make him look taller?

  144. WHAT????

    Are you serious BOSSIP? WHO CARES!!! One was a wig wearing, joke stealing liar and the other is a permed up Fival looking swimp (short wanna be pimp) who’s always late.
    WHO CARES WHO WINS, NEITHER IS FUNNY!!!!!!

    And as for Jamie Fox…will someone please tell him to pick a level for his ever changing hair line!!!!!

  145. Debs

    I can’t believe that people are taking this so seriously.
    They are COMEDIANS. This is hype! It’s not a real beef, it’s a publicity stunt!
    PLEASE…………whew!

  146. Aumbomb

    Steve Harvey is one of the most overrated comedians in the bizz. He’s not the king. He wasn’t on the level of Bernie Mac. In fact, he tried to stab Bernie in the back for the Oceans 11 role. Bernie Mac was the King of comedy. After his death, we’re still searching. Katt, may be the next, but only time will tell.

  147. kenya

    concerned reader…do you think dave chappelle just appeared out of nowhere? he’s been doing stand up for years, and even had a sitcom that was short lived because it wasn’t up to his standards. we know that dave will walk away from money in a minute because he has integrity, and a little touch of craziness.
    i’ve seen chappelle’s stand up, and yes it was funny as hell, and i’m really not one to laugh easily, which is why katt and steve harvey are both garbage in my eyes.

  148. Anya

    Here’s the thing- who the hell is Katt Williams? he’s already been exposed as a crack head with a million kids! *****h needs to fall back and chill. It’s all crabs in a barrel- he needs to show some respect and understand that Steve deserves some credit because he along with others have paved the way for comedians like himself. But I want him to get bodied and then disappear because I have heard his jokes before and he’s wack. He’s running out of steam and this is a last ditch effort to save his career.

  149. Roe ski Love

    Iv’e seen Kat live, Steve Harvey live, Damon Wayans live, Eddie Murphy live, and Chris Rock live, none of them are even close to Richard Pryor. Chris Rock is very funny though. Damon Wayans, I wasted $150 on tickets on his show. Steve Harvey is funny as the Rev. Motown. Kat Williams comedy is limited to the ghetto experience. Eddie Murphy is just plain talented in all aspects, he right now is the undisputed KING OF COMEDY.

  150. ChocolateKate

    Is Katt for real???? I mean just in the few first seconds that Steve came on the radio show, he had m e cracking up! Katt wasnt even funny and he thinks he is going to take the crown??? You cannot be serious…Katt needs to fall back and play his position and reverence one of the masters of comedy. Besides where are his new jokes? I havent heard nothing new….(crickets)

  151. ChocolateKate

    P.S
    I like how Steve used the Moon & Dog *****ogy! It’s so flippin true. T.I said the same thing about Shawty Lo, when he tried to come off to him. T.I is still keeping it moving with another hit while shawty is faded already!
    I mean come on, where are you going to be 5 years from now Katt seriously!

  152. Angeli81

    First off:Stop hatin on Steve harvey because he IS a King Of Comedy!! I would never put him above richard Pryor, Redd Foxx, or Robin Harris. But plz believe he is KILLIN Dave Chappelle!!! Now DL Hugley didnt belong on that tour, but Steve, Bernie, & Ced R funny as hell!!! Dave Chappelle’s show was funny as *****, but his stand-up’s SUCK m*****ive @ss!!!!honestly I think,no, I KNOW Steve is gon tear Katt Williams itty-bitty @ss apart!!!!! Go get em Steve. The ‘D’ gotcha back…..4SHO!!


  153. You know my ex-husband loves Katt Williams. Yes and my ex-husband is a certified ***** too! I love Steve Harvey and this is only someone trying to get free publicity.

    I do feel as though Katt Williams has potential in doing movies though–for instance if Alice In Wonderland was to do some casting or The Wizard of Oz.

    He needs to grow up; he has failed to show for hosting events due to his girl friend having affairs to gun possessions. I have two sons and I want them to grow up like Bill Cosby, Bernie Mac, and Steve Harvey.

    Williams just admitted that he does not write his own material–”a person does not know how stupid you are until you open your mouth.” Take your 3″ as and curl your hair!

  154. Mike

    wowwwwwwwwww…..I was there and I have to say Steve Harvey was way funnier. I’m a Katt Williams fan but he spent his entire time on stage venting. He kept calling Steve ***** ***** *****s all night and kept trying to get him to come back out face to face. he also called T-Pain a ***** ***** ***** and said he can’t wait to see Jamie Foxx face to face so can cuss him out. I guess they will never let this show go to dvd.

  155. Hytman

    well i was there last night and katt williams was on steve head lol

    steve was funny too, but he spent most his time talkin about the set and this crazy woman in the crowed

  156. P

    steve harvey – dry old *****
    Cedric – dry old *****
    DL – never funny at all
    Bernie – funny as hell

    Katt’s funnier than all of them


  157. i would love to know why katt went at steve to begin with…..but lets keep it real… how they call themselvse “The Original Kings of Comedy” is the problem… we all know Richard Pryor & Eddie Murphy should be named ORGINAL!! truth be told.. i think Katt would have smashed Steve…. why didn’t steve make the battle???????

  158. Bill

    They must have fought for the lightHeavy belt, cause Dave Chappelle and Chris Rock still share the crown.

  159. Suavesoul

    They are both good comics. But Steve Harvey paid his dues in the come-up. Katt kind of bursted out on the scene with his “Money Mike” character. I don’t understand the beef. Do you hear Dane Cook trying to battle Jerry Seinfeld?. It’s us who have to make everything a battle of the fittest. Honestly, Katt need some more notches on his belt. If Steve totally ignored him its understandable. Game respect game. You learn from those who been where you going. They come from two totally different perspectives. But both in the end will be great comedians. From a street point of view, This crap shouldn’t have gotten this far……


  160. Steve can’t handle that “KAtt”. Katt got to much For that ole’ man.True enough STeve One of the KIngs But Katt Will take the Crown from Any day and Any Time!!!!
    And thats REAL TALK Fo Ya>

  162. james

    steve need new material…SERIOUSLY! And that whole “I don’t know him” routine is old. Katt Williams is the #2 grossing standup comic in the country. Steve ain’t never been able to pack no house successfully and never could tour solo…sorry folks but it is what it is….

  164. Chris Drummonds

    I saw a few clips from both, Katt killed Steve in my opinion.Katt came in looking for blood.

  165. cbo29

    Man…that photo of steve is faker than that wig he used to wear!

  166. Kit

    Nina Knows,

    I’m definitely with you on everything you just said.

    You said the smartest thing out of everyone here.

    Why the heck are black people in entertainment even competing like that?

    And no one here can personally comment on anything about the Steve Harvey/Bernie Mac relationship because NONE of ya’ll were there to speak on it!!

    How can anyone here talk about something they know nothing about.

    Part of the problem with black people is that we are own worst enemy and continue to put each other down in the public eye for everyone to speculate on bullsh*t they know nothing about.

  167. Kit

    Oh yeah, and regardless of whether of you like Steve or Katt better, Katt loses because Katt cares too much.

    It’s like a Nas/Jay-Z battle….in the end, while Nas’s flow might’ve been better on Either, Jay-Z wasn’t invested like that.

    The person who isn’t invested as much is the person who wins.

    Steve doesn’t have anything to prove at this point, and they are like apples and oranges.

    They appeal to different audiences and age groups.

    And as Nina Knows said, I don’t think the point of the “Original Kings of Comedy” title was to be taken that literally, so people need to stop hatin’ and being so serious, and get a sense of perspective.

    It’s a title and nothing more. Obviously, any respectable comic knows he/she needs to pay homage and respect to those that came before him/her, and I believe all those comics know and believe that.
