Who is BIG CED?

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.

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!!

Big Ced is…

The only guy that can look like Bernie Mac AND Ma$e at the same damn time.

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.

I’ve been in the industry since Hip Hop was a pup. I met Cedric many moons ago as he began working. Simply said, Cedric aka Big Ced, always had follow through and is a stand up guy. He’s always been honest, but no Boy Scout and definitely not a sucker! He always had a great pen, and his love for hip hop always shined through…

Big Ced…real good man!

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!

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 an entrepreneurial and social media aristocrat. But most importantly, he is a huge supporter who is always there when you need him, a wonderful friend and all around good guy!

‘Big Ced is a very intelligent and enterprising brother who is also very accommodating. There has rarely been a time where Ced hasn’t answered the call.’
