Who is BIG CED?

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.

Before there was social media, you had Big Ced, a gatherer of people. He is more than a promoter or socialite. He hand picked people he liked or felt had some value and invited them to local bars, restaurants, night clubs, sporting events and various other places they probably had never been.

His ability to bring ground breaking thinkers, music artists, athletes, directors, models and moguls together is quite unique. Even in 2016, he continues to collect a eclectic group of movers and shakers.

I imagine he believes in you, before you believe in yourself.

He is a pioneering writer on the internet, before the word blogger and continues to use the platform to make social change.

Hard headed. Arrogant. But well intentioned and good hearted.

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!

Big Ced is an enigma within the Hip Hop culture! As soon as you think you’ve got him figured out…you find out you don’t! His truthful and blunt personality is not a persona…it’s the real deal Holyfield! So, if you can’t hang with honesty or if you don’t understand why people jump up around him shouting “facts only!”…then you probably need to stay out of the way! Because Ced pulls no punches and takes zero prisoners. Which is why he is one of my favorite people in this community! He doesn’t deal in phony…and I appreciate him for that! If he says it…then it is so…period!

“Who is BIG CED? A forward-thinking, an ambitious and energetic creative, who is unafraid of big moments and spectacles. A man who deserves his props for all the work he’s done in his 20-plus-year career.”

Kevin L. ClarkManaging Editor OkayplayerBrooklyn, New York

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!)

‘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 ‘

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!
