Who is BIG CED?

‘I have known Big Ced for many years and he has always been not only the consummate professional and an admirable go-getter, but a dear friend on whose support I could always count. Professionally or personally, Ced is someone you want on your team!’

Nancy ByronOwnerO.G.P.R.Houston, TX

BIG CED is an industry professional with a magnanimous personality and a smile to match. For almost twenty years, I have relied on BIG CED to enlighten his networks about my clients and good deeds and he has never once closed his door or acted like he didn’t care, and for that I am eternally grateful. Through his career transitions and evolutions, BIG CED has remained humble and authentic and ALWAYS reachable. In the media landscape it’s common to lose touch with people but through my different career moves, BIG CED has always been just a phone call away. Cheers to BIG CED and may everything he touches be as sincere as he is.

I’ve been in the industry since Hip Hop was a pup. I met Cedric many moons ago as he began working. Simply said, Cedric aka Big Ced, always had follow through and is a stand up guy. He’s always been honest, but no Boy Scout and definitely not a sucker! He always had a great pen, and his love for hip hop always shined through…
Big Ced…real good man!

Troy SheltonCo-Founder/CEOForthright Entertainment

One of the most genuine people I’ve met in entertainment industry, it’s no wonder why he’s among everyone’s favorite people. He has never hesitated to support any of my projects for more than a decade in good faith which is becoming harder to find in a game where money is the bottom line. I am honored to be his friend.

BIG CED is an anomaly. If I’m being frank, I have no idea how to describe what he does for a living. Is he a party promoter? A writer? An industry socialite? Probably all of the above. He’s basically Tommy from “Martin.” We know he works, but where?! What I do know for sure is that BIG CED is kind, he’s reliable, he’s got a winning smile and everyone in the biz has him on their NYC invite list. And I am glad to know him. Keep on truckin’ BIG CED!

I honestly don’t know for sure. He is someone I crossed paths with over 20 years ago as I started my career in this black entertainment industry. He was the first person to offer me a feature profiling me as a new member of the industry on The Industry Co-Sign. He was and is funny, crazy, annoying overzealous, overbearingly braggadocios about his appearance in the MC Lyte video back in the day. He is someone with whom you never skip a beat; no matter how long it’s been since the last time you’ve clasped hands or shared a warm hello. It’s as if you’re picking up a conversation from yesterday. He never forgets you for an invitation to a birthday party (not sure if that’s a money making scheme or not) but he makes sure that your name is on the list. Seemingly a touch self-centered, he’s just extremely aware of his worth and knows that this industry always deserves better. He is a veritable living, breathing archive of urban entertainment history. His lisp is ever present; his laugh is contagious; he is always smiling. An all-around good person to know. Well connected (and we’re talking real connections here not just social media) and willing to share those connections with you. Because he knows that’s how we move forward. Together. I’m happy to know him in as much as I do. And although I know I don’t see him often, I’m positive he’ll never treat me like a stranger. Ever.

“Who is BIG CED? A forward-thinking, an ambitious and energetic creative, who is unafraid of big moments and spectacles. A man who deserves his props for all the work he’s done in his 20-plus-year career.”

Kevin L. ClarkManaging Editor OkayplayerBrooklyn, New York

If I had to explain Big Ced in one word I would decline to answer. Someone as ever-changing, ever-growing, ever-learning, as Big Ced can’t be colored with one box of crayons. I have known Ced for about two-thirds of my life and in each phase he has challenged himself to do something NEW! Fearless, honest, talented, and real (not in any order) Ced is Hip-Hop;Ced is entertainment; Ced is the one-percent of decent human beings in a business that constantly attempts to compromise your moral foundation. Ced is a producer (Bet not many know that) Writer…Speaker and perpetual student. Big Ced is a brother…a friend…a leader and a teacher! To those who know him, Big Ced is a blessing!

Wait.. how did I get on this? Well, he has a brilliant mind, so witty and funny. At first I thought he’d be the average then he just started to shine… Kevin Hart is one of the funniest guys out right now… oh I’m sorry… Big Ced? Well, I think he used to work for the circus as the bearded lady… well, that’s rumor so don’t quote me but Ced is like a switch board and a lot of information passes through him… Ok, Ced can you pay me now?
