In a recent interview, comedian Cat Williams took aim at Beyoncé, alleging shady practices in her rise to fame. Williams has been on a spree exposing industry figures, including Beyoncé, Steve Harvey, Cedric the Entertainer, Kevin Hart, and Tiffany Haddish. He accuses Beyoncé of benefiting from stolen music and intentionally suppressing other artists.

Williams claims Beyoncé paid $20 million for her success but reaped $60 million in benefits. Ailia Banks, another artist, corroborated Williams’ claims, accusing Beyoncé of stealing music from black female artists and not compensating songwriters adequately. Banks cited personal experiences of Beyoncé stifling her career and erasing her contributions to house music.

Fans also drew parallels with Emory, whose career allegedly suffered after Beyoncé allegedly copied her style. These revelations challenge Beyoncé’s image and raise questions about her integrity. Whether Beyoncé will respond and how the public will react remains to be seen.
