Earthquake responds to Katt Williams calling him illiterate

Earthquake says he and Katt Williams are cool

Earthquake is the latest comedian to respond to Katt Williams’ comments from Shannon Sharpe’s show “Club Shay Shay.”


During the interview, Williams claimed that Earthquake wasn’t in movies because he was “illiterate.”


“He can’t read, and they found that out when they gave him a show and put the cards in front of him,” Williams said.

On Jan. 26, Earthquake did an interview with “The Breakfast Club” and responded to Williams’ comments.


“I’m in the joke-telling business, you know what I mean? So it didn’t do anything, I think, for comedy,” Earthquake said. “Personally speaking, me and him was cool, so I didn’t know where that came from. Certain things he said about me, half was true, half was a lie. But to each his own.

“I don’t even get into that part of it because, I’m the type of person [where] if I have a problem with you, Charlamagne, I’mma call you. We’re either gonna talk it out, we’re gonna duke it out, but we’re gonna handle it man-to-man. I don’t talk behind people’s backs and that’s what social media is.”

Earthquake then discussed the comments Williams made about him being illiterate.

“First of all, it’s a lie,” Earthquake said. “I used to [do radio at WBLS]. Everybody in radio wants to be like y’all and be syndicated. But if you’re not syndicated and you just got one godd— station, [the] only way you get some money [is] off live reads.”
