Who is BIG CED?

Big Ced…. a good friend, a survivor , perseverant, pioneer in hip-hop and champion for all good music and exceptional artists.

Inaya DayArtistNy-O-Dae Music

You are an innovator who was ahead of his time as it relates to digital and blogs. You are also very kind and humble . Your life has been about promoting and helping others when so many people are all about self-promotion especially in the entertainment business. I know you have been in the business for a while but I hope you continue to fulfill your purpose as a top creator of content.

Big Ced is the real deal and one of the best kept secrets in NYC.

When I think of Big Ced, what comes to mind is a well respected industry vet who has worked at huge media publications such as Black Enterprise, Vibe and The Source to name a few. A passionate and dedicated journalist who is an innovator that created a platform of his own, his website, The Industry Cosign, which he has held down for over 12 years. I am privileged and blessed to know him and I am inspired and motivated by him.

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!

? Hmmm…. Big Ced??? Besides being a short comical asshole, Ced is an all around good guy whose business practices, loyalty and honesty are rare in this industry of entertainment. Ced is a genuine dude that I’m happy and honored to have as a friend and consider him as one of my brothers!!! #DLE

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.

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?

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.
