Who is BIG CED?

Big Ced is an all around good dude! Met him in the beginning of time and decades later, Ced was still the same guy, and that’s what’s really special about him. He’s not a game, he’s the real deal!

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 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

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.

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?

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 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.
