Katt Williams recently worked alongside SZA on a new film, and the comedian couldn’t hold back his admiration for the singer. During a break on set, Katt shared some kind words about SZA, calling her a “mentally ill genius.”
It may have sounded like an odd compliment, but those who know Katt understand he’s not one to stick to conventional praise. He explained that he believes SZA’s creative mind operates on a level that some might not understand, comparing her talent to that of other iconic artists who often wrestle with their mental health.
SZA seemed to take it all in stride, knowing that Katt meant nothing but good things with his words. The film they’re working on together has yet to be named, but with both stars involved, it’s definitely something to keep an eye on.
