Katt Williams Believes Eddie Murphy Shouldn’t Be Considered Someone’s ‘Favorite Comedian’

[RUDY RAYYY MO]

With the comic not having done a stand-up show in decades, Williams believes it makes no sense for someone today to consider him the greatest

Why Katt Williams Believes Eddie Murphy Shouldn't Be Considered Someone's 'Favorite Comedian'

Katt Williams once revealed that he couldn't see why one of his influences in Eddie Murphy could be considered someone's favorite comedian.

Richard Pryor has been dead for nearly 20 years. He’s not doing stand up.

I think Katt Williams is trying to force us to rank him with Dave Chapelle as top comedian. I remember the video where he was so proud to have 18 million specials. None of them good or funny but it counts for something.

 

[Sloboogie]

Problem with Kat is that he doesn't stay in his own lane in regard to his craft

Kat is just saying Eddie hasn't done standup since the 80's which is true.

I like Kat Williams but shit like this sometimes comes back and bite him in the ass…..sometimes you just need to keep shit to yourself.

Comics are notorious haters.....

 

[playahaitian]

Katt... brother please

Just take a break from all this talking about nothing

And when was Katt last stand up special?

Katt last special was 2018

Did you see it and can you name it?

And when was the last special Katt did that shook the comedy world?

Cause Eddie's two old ones?

Still better that most that came out in the last 5 years.

And I'm a fan of Katt.

Judging by their body of work (on stage and film), Katt should keep Eddie’s name out of his mouth.

Raw and Delirious are all time stand up shows. Chris n Eddie are my favorite comedians.

Katt Williams constantly says smart dumb nigga shit imo. I could see I'd we had no record of Eddie's comedy but all the shit is on film anyone can access it lol.

“I’m only the greatest comedian living because I have more female fans than any comedian on the globe,” Williams said according to Atlanta Black Star.

Ok.

 

[william busa]

Katt trying to stay relevant by shitting on a legend like Eddie. What Katt should do is STFU and try to write some funny jokes, cause the only time I ever laughed at that nigga is when that high school kid whooped his ass!

As I stated before, can you really be the GOAT if you have confirmed ghostwriters?

Who you talkin bout?

 

[Da Backshot Champ]

Who you talkin bout?

Eddie or Richard, your choice.

 

[REDLINE]

Eddie or Richard, your choice.

Hmmmm I hear ya

 

[Da Backshot Champ]

Hmmmm I hear ya

I give you an analogy. If we found out today that Mike Jordan used steroids (ghostwriters) his whole career would he still be the GOAT in most people eyes?

Yes

Nah but as far as comedy, I hear you loud and clear!

 

[Complex]

Sounds like Lebron fan logic

 

[peterlongshort]

Eddie has made more money/impact as an actor than a comedian. I see his point.

 

[godofwine]

Eddie Murphy's hustle just to be considered for Saturday Night Live at the age of 19 is astronomical.

Do you know how young you got to start? Do you know how many clubs you got to play in when you're too young to be in there in the first place?

Do you realize how little life experience you have to be funny at that age?

Sometimes Katt Williams needs to sit down and shut the fuk up. Eddie Murphy was a comedian first. Yes, he only had two specials. But did he need any more?

He ascended past stand up. He was still funny, but he ascended past stand up. That was his choice.

Stand-up is the start for every comedian. Some choose to stay in it, While others don't have a choice because movies never came calling for them the way it did for Eddie Murphy, Bernie Mac, Chris Tucker and many others

I don't know if a Mount Rushmore of comedians could be done, but if you want to put in a career achievement Eddie Murphy did that so others could do theirs

You could never get a consensus Mount Rushmore of comedians, even with the Mount Rushmore or black comedian. It's not possible

This is like saying your favorite baseball player cant be Willie Mays because he hasnt played in 48 years.

I respect Kat Williams as a comedian. But he's wrong. When you're good, you don't have to do stand up. You get paid more for less work doing movies.

I do believe the context of what he said is lost on a lot of people.

He never said he was funnier than Eddie he just said, not so eloquently, that Eddie should be considered an actor now. He's saying now, today he is not a comedian and you can't compare comedians or people doing standup to folks doing comedy movies.

True. I did miss what he was trying to say.

Tons of comedians have writers..lol

Kat isn't funny at all to me, I was just translating what he said.

And if Katt could stay out of trouble & his keep his mouth closed his movie career would have taken off & he'd probably be doing less on stage shit.

 

[D'Evils]

The definition of a comedian is an entertainer whose act is designed to make an audience laugh.

Stand up is only one of many mediums...

Eddie has successfully made audiences laugh on all levels from TV to Stand Up to Movies to Music to Animation to Voice Over, etc... For damn near 40 years...

 

[HNIC]

Raw and Delirious are all time stand up shows. Chris n Eddie are my favorite comedians.

Richard Pryor's Live in Concert (1979) and Eddie Murphy's Delirious are the 2 best Stand-Up specials ever.

 

[madgoose]

Richard Pryor has been dead for nearly 20 years. He’s not doing stand up.

Please don't start studying rocket science!
