It Needs To BE CED

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.

“Big CED is a stand up dude who has always helped me in securing coverage for the artists and projects I’m working on” – @brokencool

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.

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!!

The Best GUY Ever.

Big Ced is an industry trailblazer, one of the first to capture the Who’s Who of the entertainment industry before the dawn of social media.

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…

‘I have known Big Ced for many years and he has always been not only the consummate professional and an admirable go-getter, but a dear friend on whose support I could always count. Professionally or personally, Ced is someone you want on your team!’

Nancy ByronOwnerO.G.P.R.Houston, TX

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!
