Who is BIG CED?

Big Ced is an industry legend. He is not only a real journalist but is a leader with an inclusive attitude. I am always grateful for Big Ced giving me my first interview.

Syreta OglesbyOwnerSJO 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.

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

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.

I’ve had the pleasure and some displeasure knowing Big Ced for the better half of 40 years! I’ve watched him create himself several dozen times for various reasons both professionally and personally. I’ve seen him change for family, for women, for work, for school & by choice. I could call him an innovator, I could call him a copycat, I have called him a promoter, an enthusiast, a writer, and a knucklehead and that was all on the same day. He’s been very fortunate with relationships that have allowed him to continue to rise to many varied occasions & He has not allowed the naysayers & detractors to destroy how great he is to himself or how great he could be in real life. He’s a pretty good friend, when he’s not giving advice, he’s a damn good son, but not always a good brother. He has taken shots, knots, go aways and plenty of Hell No Ced…but like the famous Timex slogan…he has kept on ticking…he’s A King In His Own Right or Mind…and he’s sometimes just too much…but when given the opportunity to do good with lil to say & lots of huffing, puffing and yawns…he’s a good guy with personality & wit to match! He’s a team player with the right team or a leader when asked to be so! Given the chance after he’s exhausted your patience…give him a little more time and the project he’s been entrusted to do will shine & prove his true worth! Ceds a good guy & a great friend! That is Big Ced when all is Ced and done! (Drops Mic & jumps out closest window!)

Big Ced is just that, BIG! Big personality, big industry guy, big friend, big comedy fool! A real stand-up guy that I don’t keep in touch with but wish I would!

My very first interview was with Biggie Smalls aka The Notorious B.I.G. In that interview, I asked him where did he see himself in 10 years. His response? ‘Dead’ He said he didn’t imagine himself living past 25. He was killed 2 months before his 25th birthday.

Big Ced is Mr. Connect the dots! An industry insider who is able to help connect people together. As someone that everyone knows and trust, his cosign will take you far. He is also someone who has a very big heart and is willing to support in any way possible. In short… Ced is the Man!!!

WHO IS BIG DEAD?? Oh CED Hhmmmm this would be a ROASTING opportunity for all of his peers & friends to let him have it! LOL Seriously, there isnt one word to describe The Man, The Myth, and Legend.. Hell, we are still only seeing the surface of Big Ced. Its has truly been an honor to be able to call this guy, a Friend, and family. Personally, His loyalty, and compassion sets him apart from many.. Professionally his knowledge, and un-bias views on Music, Entertainment and its lifestyles are to be commended and respected. We greatly appreciate all you do CED! Nothing but Universal & Hip Hop Love!!

Who Is Big Ced
Big Ced is Diana Ross illegitimate son by David Ruffin..
I’ve known Ced for over 20 years he was a Roadie for the Stylistics ..
No but in all reality Ced is one of my oldest friends from when hiphop was fun and not about skinny jeans and rhymes about Bologna. He comes from a period where we were a community of creative people a magical era where we actually danced and looked forward to being fly not microwave shit like we listen too now. He is definitely a historian of our culture and just a all around GREAT dude . Proud to say he is my friend a real friend . No Hollywood shit with him at all .. Hey Ced just stop wearing corduroy suits in the rain and drinking Long Island Ice Teas with no Ice …
