Mr. Ebony Man…

Before anything else, I have to honor God for guiding me to this moment. His presence carried me through every rehearsal, every doubt, and every step on that stage. I’m reminded of Jeremiah 29:11 — “For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”
This journey reminded me that when I trust His plan, He always leads me exactly where I’m meant to be. A year ago, I never saw myself competing in a pageant, and now I stand blessed with a title and an experience that changed me. This wasn’t just a competition; it became a space for growth, faith, joy, and memories I will carry with me forever.

-To my friends, family, and brothers — thank you for being my backbone throughout this process. Your encouragement, your prayers, the late-night calls, the laughs, and the unwavering belief you had in me kept me grounded. And to my fellow contestants — the bond we created is something truly special. We came into this as individuals, but we walked out as a brotherhood. The long rehearsals, the jokes backstage, the moments of frustration, the shared nerves, and the shared victories made this experience unforgettable. Each of you pushed me, inspired me, and reminded me of what real camaraderie looks like. I’m honored to have stood on that stage with you.

-To the Supreme Epsilon Kappa Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Incorporated @dst_ek — words will never fully express my gratitude. Thank you for opening your arms, trusting me, and giving me the privilege to represent this incredible chapter as your 2025 Mr. Ebony Man and Mr. Crimson & Cream. What you created was more than a pageant — it was a platform, a family, and a legacy. Your organization’s excellence, grace, and dedication to uplifting Black men and women alike are felt in everything you do. Thank you for pouring into us, guiding us, and reminding us of the importance of carrying ourselves with dignity, purpose, and pride. I am truly humbled and honored to be a part of something so meaningful. by @underrated_rayray
