Who is BIG CED?

Who is Big Ced? Someone that is always smiling! Someone that is always trying to make sure that he looks out for you. Someone that does not ask of much in return. And someone that knows people. Big Ced is an amazing and accomplished journalist and networker. Big Ced is a veteran and if you do not know him… Stop asking who is Big Ced and get to know him.

Ra-Fael Blanco VP Media Relations & Communications2R's Entertainment & Media PRNew York, NY

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.

Rachel NoerdlingerManaging DirectorMercuryNew York, NY

In my mind I’d say “Big CED is an a$$ Hole” But my heart says “It’s hard to hate Big CED” So my mouth would say “Big CED is an all around good guy”!

Mitch 'Ski' DudleyLabel Marketing & SalesRED DistributionNew York, NY

Big Ced is…
The only guy that can look like Bernie Mac AND Ma$e at the same damn time.
Hit The Road Sam from the MC Lyte “Paper Thin” video
The geeky trifocal glasses wearing mofo from the “Monie In The Middle” video
Matter of fact…he’s the first male video vixen. He’s a Mixen.
Real talk tho… He’s a good dude. Pause.
He’s a great entertainment resource to have and he’s a good mentor, big brother figure and friend.
But he’s still sarcastic as hell.
Even though most of his jokes be missing the mark, we still laugh along with his punk azz.
He’s like a termite… or is it the cockroach… he’ll be around forever.
Ok for real now? Who’s this Big Ced guy you’re asking me about? Never heard of him.

Seed PopularCo-FounderRule 4080New York, NY

Big Ced…. a good friend, a survivor , perseverant, pioneer in hip-hop and champion for all good music and exceptional artists.

Big Ced is a veteran in the entertainment industry that’s paved the way for some of the industry’s most prized possessions.

‘He’s a punk, no he’s actually one of the many few who will offer information without strings attached. He is genuinely wants people to succeed ‘

Toni Dubois Senior Project CoordinatorHBONew York, NY

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.

He’s the best!

Gina TorresOwnerG Torres MediaNew York City

Well… outside of having the worst jokes I’ve ever heard, Big Ced to me is what I would call “The Mayor of New York”. Ced knows everyone and everyone knows Ced. Now.. just because everyone knows him doesn’t mean everyone likes him… lol Big Ced is a writer, a journalist, a website content creator.. and did I mention he has the worst jokes ever?
