His homage to fellow ATLien singer Monica captured praise and fanfare.

Refreshing to see Thugger being black and carefree.
The Bad – Katt Williams’ sanity is questioned
After several run-ins with the law and reports of erratic behavior, Katt Williams hit a wall, figuratively.

Footage of the comedian attacking a man unprovoked during a Beanie Sigel concert set Black Twitter ablaze.
Katt Williams look like that little cousin who never knew when to stop until you buss they lip and lie to your aunt like we was slapboxing

Katt Williams one of the main reasons why if your friends ask you if you wanna try something new you say hell naw I’m good with just weed
— Briaaaaa✨ (@fxck_youu) March 7, 2016
Reports alleged the comedian was later repeatedly stomped on, however witnesses say that never happened.
So Lil Mo and Red Grant both said Katt Williams did not get stomped out or knocked out.

Poor little Katt, Katt.
The Ugly – Kim & Bette beef ignites feminist firestorm
In another saga of What Do Feminists Do?, Kim K and Bette Midler traded clapbacks after the Kardashian posted a nude.
Kim Kardashian tweeted a nude selfie today. If Kim wants us to see a part of her we’ve never seen,
she’s gonna have to swallow the camera.— Bette Midler (@BetteMidler) March 7, 2016
hey @BetteMidler I really didn’t want to bring up how you sent me a gift awhile back trying to be a fake friend then come at me #dejavu
— Kim Kardashian West (@KimKardashian) March 8, 2016
.@KimKardashian: I never tried to fake friend you. Looks like anyone can take a selfie but not everyone can take a joke…
— Bette Midler (@BetteMidler) March 8, 2016
The banter brought out hate, praise and 140-character think pieces in minutes.
Why’s everyone still obsessing over Kim Kardashian.. Nobody seen a naked woman before? 😴😴
— Lewis (@_iamlewis) March 8, 2016
Be the Kim Kardashian you wish to see in the world. #InternationalWomensDay
— Amy Rhodes (@iamamyrhodes) March 8, 2016
FYI: Kim Kardashian needs 6 people to help her take a selfie and she needs twice as many to write her snappy tweets. pic.twitter.com/Yc1o1pI2P5
— Sam Kalidi (@samkalidi) March 8, 2016
In the end Kim responded with a somewhat powerful manifesto which garnered support.
Kim Kardashian went off. I'm proud of her. #InternationalWomensDay pic.twitter.com/w06QCRUpsV

Hopefully one day the Kims and Bettes of the world will see themselves in each other. Until then the dialogue will wage on, and we’ll track it here at The Socialhood Watch.
