Suggested Reading
Hart appeared on Charlamagne Tha Godโs โOut of Contextโ show to admit that he regrets ever responding to Williamsโ comments. The host asked Hart directly about Williamsโ comments on the podcast and what exactly started the beef between the two, to which hr replied, โI think thereโs probably one moment where Iโve talked about Katt publicly.โ
โWe were promoting โNight School,โ and Tiffany [Haddish] was affected by some of the things he said,โ he explained. โIt was more of a, like, support for her in that moment and some shots at him.โ
When asked if he regretted those comments, Hart said, โYeah, I should never address him, at all. I donโt have to. Like, why? What will it do for me? What will I gain? Thereโs no gain.โ
Hart added that he likes to look at things from a โbusiness and economicโ lens: โIf Iโm investing in something, what is my return? ... If I canโt answer that question... then it doesnโt get energy.โโ
Hart answersed various questions from Charlamagne in the wide-ranging interview, covering topics like his journey in comedy to date, the idea of him being an โindustry plantโ and more, as Complex reported. Check out the full interview below:

Hart wasnโt the only target in the interview: Williams spoke about Cedric The Entertainer, Ludacris, Tyler Perry, Rickey Smiley and others.
