Popular comedian MK Slatt, also known as Slimeball MK, has confirmed he is alive after false rumors of his death went viral.

As the claims gained traction, many fans expressed disbelief and uncertainty about their accuracy. The false narrative was debunked when Slatt’s cousin, Wigsby K Way, publicly reassured fans that the comedian was very much alive.
MK Slatt has become a social media sensation for his relatable and humorous situational comedy. With over 1.5 million followers on Instagram and 1.2 million subscribers on YouTube, the 24-year-old comedian from Center Point, Alabama, has built a loyal fan base since beginning his career in 2018.

Despite the recent death hoax, MK Slatt has faced challenges outside of his comedy career. In December 2023, he was arrested in Irondale, Alabama, as part of a narcotics investigation. He, along with four others, was charged with drug and weapon possession as well as trafficking-related offenses.
Although these legal issues have surfaced, MK Slatt’s popularity remains strong, with fans continuing to support his work and celebrate his comedic talent.
