Who is BIG CED?

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 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!

I had the honor of meeting Cedric Thornton at an event in New York around a decade ago (2006). I didn’t understand who he was at first. I thought he was a youthful, friendly, funny guy. As I got to know him though, I realized that Cedric (Big Ced) Thornton was much more. Cedric knew a lot of people and a lot of people knew him. I would soon learn that he, himself was a pioneer of contemporary, commercial, urban culture, having appeared in a few music videos to songs by Monie Love and MC Lyte, in his youth, among other things. Cedric has always been wise beyond his youthful appearance. His sense of humor never strays from the truth. My fondest memory of Ced, was when I was getting my feet wet with digital reporting, and he gave me a few writing assignments. He always referred to me by my last name, “Glinski” and I loved that! Cedric’s level of professionalism and respect, sets him apart. Whether publishing news to his forum, TheIndustryCosign, or holding weekly social events around NY, one could always count on Cedric to be mature and responsible – and also down to earth and funny.

Cedric is a great friend. He has maintained many friendships with people who he’s known most of his life, and has always been instrumental in bringing people together for a good time. Ced is famous for saying, “I don’t get involved; people involve me.” The original phrase is a testament to the fact that many people have confided in Ced, because they trust him. To know him, is to love him.

Big Ced is…

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

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.

Wait.. how did I get on this? Well, he has a brilliant mind, so witty and funny. At first I thought he’d be the average then he just started to shine… Kevin Hart is one of the funniest guys out right now… oh I’m sorry… Big Ced? Well, I think he used to work for the circus as the bearded lady… well, that’s rumor so don’t quote me but Ced is like a switch board and a lot of information passes through him… Ok, Ced can you pay me now?

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

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.
