Katt Williams is expanding his thoughts on why we’re living in the “age of truth.”

In a new interview for GQ’s 2024 Men of the Year issue, the 53-year-old comedian and actor reflected on his prophetic interview on Shannon Sharpe’s Club Shay Shay podcast and why the barriers to uncovering the truth have diminished.

“It’s not the year of truth,” he told GQ’s Matthew Trammell. “It’s the age of truth… It’s not that people ain’t been wanting the truth. It’s that, for the first time ever, whoever them motherfuckers are that would be involved in the Illuminati, and the shadow government, and all of that shit that really exists, that really runs the world, all of them is 80 to 100 right now.”

He continued, “So the viciousness to keep these secrets at bay, and the ability to keep you from knowing shit, right now, doesn’t really apply. You could really find out whatever the fuck you needed to find out right now.”

Williams then suggested that anyone with sufficient money, curiosity to uncover the truth could become “one of the most powerful men in America.”

“And that’s been my lane: being able to find out why these powerful entities are powerful. To find out why these people that are being taken advantage of are being taken advantage of, and to try to figure out the pipeline. Because all of it exists, and it’s all real,” he said.

Williams had a lot to say about several key figures in Hollywood, including Sean “Diddy” Combs, Steve Harvey and Cedric the Entertainer, among others.

“All of these big dick deviants is all catching hell in 2024. It’s up for all of them, it don’t matter if you Diddy or whoever you is.” Williams said on Club Shay Shay, “All lies will be exposed.”
