It Needs To BE CED

Who is BIG CED?

I’ve known Big CED for almost 20 years now, and what I like about him most is that he’s still the same person now that he was back then! In this business it’s hard to find genuine people, especially because the power of one’s network along with success and money can often times change someone’s character. But not CED, he is one of the most coolest people I know, and is also the only guy that I can call a smart-ass, but in a cool way (haha). In addition, CED is very opinionated, he’s a realist, and you always know where you stand with him.

Fred TessierFounder | Managing Director, Business Operations and StrategyKeen Management Group, Inc.New York, NY

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!

Tamekia M. Flowers-BallOwnerEpiphany|Blue®New York, NY

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…

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!

Ulysses Terrero Director, Producer, Casting Director UTV-Ulysses Terrero VisionNew York, NY

“CED is the plug; simple as that.”

Martin Berrios Senior Marketing ProfessionalNew York, NY

Who is Big Ced?  Someone that is always smiling! Someone that is always trying to make sure that he looks out for you.  Someone that does not ask of much in return.  And someone that knows people.  Big Ced is an amazing and accomplished journalist and networker. Big Ced is a veteran and if you do not know him… Stop asking who is Big Ced and get to know him.

Ra-Fael Blanco VP Media Relations & Communications2R's Entertainment & Media PRNew York, NY

Big Ced is “the Guy named Sam” who tried to play MC Lyte, when she should’ve been my girl. He seems to have gotten his act together after the ensuing beatdown, and is now a respected voice in Hip Hop culture with 20+  years of delivering biting content and social commentary across all aspects of popular culture

He’s this guy from the Bronx who when I first REALLY met him, he was working with my girl Michelle Murray at this Video company called “Classic Concepts”. He came down Howard University between 1989 and1991. Mark Pitts said “Kamal, this is my man Ced”. From that point on all I remember was that he kept talking and was a little hyped because by this point they were THE video makers at the time and he had his little tight Classic Concept jacket on lol. I never liked the jacket anyway, so I left the conversation lol.

Fast forward through the 90’s, whether it was the music industry, events that I did and he attended or vice versa, or events, parties, functions that I saw him at, he and I have become good friends. We ran in the same circles. He’s never at a loss for words, not one – EVER. Always has something comical to say. Genuinely a good brother!

In more recent years, he has established a good internet presence, he’s a talented marketer, a good connector of people, and still creates so…

Kamal K. HarrisPresident & FounderDivision 1 Marketing LLCBaltimore, MD

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.
