About

Katt Williams' "You Have An Unnatural Allegiance To Losers" refers to a quote said by comedian Katt Williams in his infamous January 2024 interview with Shannon Sharpe. The full quote is actually, "You having an unnatural allegiance to losers is not like you," though it has spread online with both titles. After the interview went viral online earlier that month, the quote became a prevalent sound on TikTok as it was used in memes, lip dubs and skits.

Origin

During the Katt Williams interview with Shannon Sharpe, which aired on YouTube on January 3rd, 2024, Williams criticized actor Faizon, and Sharpe defended him, prompting Williams to say, "You having an unnatural allegiance to losers is not like you."
