As for Williams' allegation, he explained: "He thought that I was just a no-name comedian and that he could take this joke and nobody would know. The issue was that I had already done this particular joke on BET's ComicView twice. It had done so well on BET's ComicView that they made it part of the commercial. This is not just a random joke -- this is my very best joke, and it's my last joke, and it's my closing joke. [In] 1998 I'm doing this joke; it's on ComicView. Cedric comes to The Comedy Store. He watches me in the audience, he comes backstage. He tells me what a great job I did and how much he loves the joke. Two years later, he's doing that as his last joke on the [Original] Kings of Comedy and he's doing it verbatim, he's just changed my car into a spaceship." Check out Cedric's response below.
