Who is BIG CED?

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

Zachary MabryMartial Arts Fitness InstructorNew York, NY

Big Ced is an industry trailblazer, one of the first to capture the Who’s Who of the entertainment industry before the dawn of social media.

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? In my humble opinion, he is a connector, a maven when it comes to building personal relationships and an ideas man capable of creating cool concepts at a moments notice.”

Kevin L. ClarkOkayplayerNew York, NY

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.

“Big CED is a stand up dude who has always helped me in securing coverage for the artists and projects I’m working on” – @brokencool

Big Ced is an influencer who always has something that needs to be said about like-minded folk. This compassionate, helpful individual is the industry’s best friend as he co-signs our projects, giving us additional platforms for exposure

Big Ced is a lover of music with a sarcastic tongue.

Nacole AliSpeaker, Media Personality, Author and Business OwnerTaking ActionNew Jersey

I’ve known Big CED for almost 20 years now, and what I like about him most is that he’s still the same person now that he was back then! In this business it’s hard to find genuine people, especially because the power of one’s network along with success and money can often times change someone’s character. But not CED, he is one of the most coolest people I know, and is also the only guy that I can call a smart-ass, but in a cool way (haha). In addition, CED is very opinionated, he’s a realist, and you always know where you stand with him.
