SZA recently sat to interview Kendrick Lamar for Harper's Bazaar Magazine. During their conversation, which turned a bit casual, the Snooze singer leaned toward mental health.
Before asking Lamar about his mental health, she narrated an incident that involved Katt Williams. SZA revealed that she was in jitters ahead of beginning the shoot of her first-ever movie. While she was "freaking out" about it, she met Williams, who told her she was mentally ill as a compliment. Moreover, while she considered skipping the movie's premiere, the comedian helped calm her nerves. She said,
"We shot a movie last night. I’ve never shot a movie before, so I was freaking out. It’s a lot of being scared to be myself. I’m either gonna pretend it never happened or not show up to the premiere."
She added:
"I met Katt Williams [on set]. He told me I was mentally ill, like, as a compliment. He was like, 'Sa, I believe you might have some mental—' And I was like, 'Illness?' And he was like, 'Yes' He said, 'Oh, welcome,'" the singer added.
An Instagram user complimented Williams and claimed that the comedian does not lie.
"He’ll tell you a joke but he won’t tell you a lie!"
Another one called Williams a seer and wrote,
"Katt is a seer. That’s a seers language. We don’t say it all, just enough for you to get it and say you’re welcome because when you finally get it, you gone be grateful."
