Who is BIG CED?

He got jokes. He is Hip Hop. He has a vision. An ageless part of this culture. His name is part of Hip Hop history and future.

Ovington PropheteCEOThe Candy Store Marketing Group (CSMG) New York, NY

I had the honor of meeting Cedric Thornton at an event in New York around a decade ago (2006). I didn’t understand who he was at first. I thought he was a youthful, friendly, funny guy. As I got to know him though, I realized that Cedric (Big Ced) Thornton was much more. Cedric knew a lot of people and a lot of people knew him. I would soon learn that he, himself was a pioneer of contemporary, commercial, urban culture, having appeared in a few music videos to songs by Monie Love and MC Lyte, in his youth, among other things. Cedric has always been wise beyond his youthful appearance. His sense of humor never strays from the truth. My fondest memory of Ced, was when I was getting my feet wet with digital reporting, and he gave me a few writing assignments. He always referred to me by my last name, “Glinski” and I loved that! Cedric’s level of professionalism and respect, sets him apart. Whether publishing news to his forum, TheIndustryCosign, or holding weekly social events around NY, one could always count on Cedric to be mature and responsible – and also down to earth and funny.
Cedric is a great friend. He has maintained many friendships with people who he’s known most of his life, and has always been instrumental in bringing people together for a good time. Ced is famous for saying, “I don’t get involved; people involve me.” The original phrase is a testament to the fact that many people have confided in Ced, because they trust him. To know him, is to love him.

Big CED is this arrogant brother originally from the Bronx. He currently resides in New Jersey, so he feels untouchable. He is very mouthy and opinionated. All joking aside he is a pretty good dude with a lot of wisdom and insight. We need more people like him in Hip-Hop!

A total fraud ??

And you can quote me: The Big Ced I know is a faithful friend….yet to meet many like him, period

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!

Big Ced is an icon in New York City’s hip-hop community. It has been an honor for me to know him professionally as he has written about many of my clients. Ced is one of those rare people who only deals with authentic individuals. You know, the real ones. So when dealing with him, you better come honest, humble and professional.

Theo PerryPresidentTheePee Co.New York, NY

The Best GUY Ever.

Janice I.TorresOwnerTHE BRAND PHOENIX, INC.New 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

CED: Professional, reliable, open to various ideas, thinks outside the box, willing to give others opportunities. Identifies synergies between his passion/business and the passion/business of others. Works well with others. Willing to help others, returns calls and messages. A person of integrity. That’s CED…
