About The Book
At thirteen, Micah Williams told his devout Jehovah’s Witness parents he was done. Knocking on doors wasn’t his calling, but knocking out audiences would be. He hitchhiked to Florida, hustled odd jobs, and years later would transform into Katt Williams, Emmy-winner, five-foot-five giant of comedy. The only man in Hollywood who can rock both a press and curl and sold-out arenas.
Katt details the grit and unwavering self-belief that fueled his ascent from an impromptu set at a small Florida comedy club to commanding audiences worldwide. He funded his own tours, kept his ownership, and he learned early that if you’re going to be underestimated, you might as well profit from it.
Katt also reveals the quieter side of the man behind the mic: thoughtful, spiritually grounded, and deeply committed to fatherhood. He addresses the headlines head-on, sets the record straight on his legal battles, while sharing what it really means to survive Hollywood without losing ownership of your money, your voice, or your peace.
From the soul of a man who refuses to fail, this memoir is part comedy masterclass and part middle finger to convention. It’s not just for fans; it’s for anyone who’s ever been told their dreams were too loud. Katt delivers a blueprint for betting on yourself…and winning.

Raves and Reviews
“Absolutely crazy fun. Katt is one of the kindest guys I know, a good heart, and a truthful spirit. One thing I can say is that he does not tell no lies and that is a fact. Oh, and I cannot forget he is one of my favorite Virgos.” —Keke Palmer
“The genius that is Katt, ain’t for everybody just the ones with the good sense God gave them to look at the world around them and themselves and see what that ni**a sees and just how hilarious we all are.” —Samuel L. Jackson
“‘Katt Williams’—a name I should literally have tattooed somewhere on my body. Oh so many years ago, Katt, with his genuine intuitiveness, saw in me what I had not yet seen in myself. Gave me chances and opportunities that no one else even thought about bestowing on me. I love this guy I believe he loves me. I hope this book gives people insight into the Man, not the brand. We all came from somewhere and I’m honored to be part of the story." —Luenell
