TLDR

Support woke culture by slapping it in the back of the head.

What it's about

Comedian Katt Williams hails and ridicules the woke era as the greatest time to be alive.

The take

Amid energetic lights and obnoxious airhorns, Katt Williams makes his way to the stage and quickly greets you with the gospel of crass. His descriptions and premises aren’t anything to write home about as his style is more a boisterous NSFW style that resembles a night of gossip. But for most of this set, you’ll just be thinking about how his performer voice sounds like a cartoon grandma, a southern Spongebob, and “Macho Man” Randy Savage preaching to you all at once. The set had a touchy mental health bit that sucked the life out the room for a moment, but would take an empowering turn in its final third as Williams talks about racism in 2024. It’s a mess, but it finishes strong, at least.

What stands out

This man was looking gassed 15 minutes into his set, I felt a little bad for him I started getting gassed, too.
