"When Daril tells his "Thug Story", he certainly doesn't sugar coat it. This may be the story of one man, but it tells the stories of many men who turn to drugs and crime, instead of doing good. Yes, this is actually a positive gangsta rap song!" - Dan Macintosh
"Damon Nailer is a great communicator who can motivate and inspire the listener. His speeches are informative and understandable. Mr. Nailer is excellent at provoking a high degree of thought and reasoning as he speaks whether it be children or adults." - Tereatha Chisley
"Damon has great oratory skills. I've had the privilege of hearing him speak at the Lighthouse Church and at the Youth/Adult Entrepreneurship Training Courses. His charisma was evident. He has the uncanny ability to keep your attention and get his point across. He is currently pursuing a career in motivational speaking and I have no doubt he is in the right business and will be successful.
In conclusion, Damon is trustworthy, assertive, talented, and outgoing. He's a wonderful example in our community of how a young man should carry himself. He is an extremely capable man who would be an asset to any project he's involved with. I highly recommend him for your program." - Ericka Kelly
