Katt Williams Net Worth In 2024

Katt Williams started 2024 with an explosive appearance on Shannon Sharpe’s Club Shay Shay Podcast. In the almost three hours during this conversation, the stand-up comedian shared many of his opinions about his career and roasted some of his colleagues. At the same time, he also joked about his wealth and how it doesn’t match up with the reported net worth. Estimates lean anywhere between 2m to 5m, but he says those numbers do not consider the extra he’s made off individual Netflix specials throughout his career.

Micah Williams, born in Cincinnati, Ohio in 1971, was Katt Williams’ name before his acting career took off. Williams warned his family that he adopted the name early in his career to align with his material. Long claimed to have devoured thousands of books as a child, which may seem overstated given his stand-up act’s loquacity and erudition.

He sought emancipation as a minor at the age of 13, on grounds of abuse, and was kicked out of his family house. He lived on the streets for a few years before starting to earn money through street vending. He also began his early entertainment career with a traveling circus, then moved to Los Angeles to try his luck in the entertainment industry.

Katt Williams also showcased his acting skills in movies such as Norbit, First Sunday, Epic Movie, as well as his appearance in the animated series The Boondocks, which led to his popular character, A Pimp Named Slickback. Recently, he was on Netflix’s The Last O.G and Black-Ish.

Katt Williams has churned out over a dozen one-hour stand-up specials since he entered the field of specials with his debut in 2006. Regularly channeling his ‘godfather’ pimp persona in his performances, Williams revealed turning down deals that were over 50 million dollars, which puts him on top of the most wanted stand-up comedians in Hollywood right now.

Even as reports have mentioned a 2-5m range of Williams’ net worth, his recent claims and his resume suggest that Williams could, in fact, be a multi-millionaire. His cover with Shay got him a lot of visibility despite there being anything necessarily new that was said about his work. This particularly caught on with younger viewers on TikTok. It may keep streaming numbers up, leading to his next Netflix stand-up being the highest-viewed comedy special of his career for now.
