It Needs To BE CED

Who is BIG CED?

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.

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…

CED:

Professional, reliable, open to various ideas, thinks outside the box, willing to give others opportunities. Identifies synergies between his passion/business and the passion/business of others. Works well with others.

Willing to help others, returns calls and messages. A person of integrity.

 

That’s CED…

BIG CED is a fixture in the classic NY Hip Hop music industry. He is a good guy and a cool dude to know. He knows EVERYONE, very well connected and is still doing his thing in the industry.

BIG CED is an anomaly. If I’m being frank, I have no idea how to describe what he does for a living. Is he a party promoter? A writer? An industry socialite? Probably all of the above. He’s basically Tommy from “Martin.” We know he works, but where?! What I do know for sure is that BIG CED is kind, he’s reliable, he’s got a winning smile and everyone in the biz has him on their NYC invite list. And I am glad to know him. Keep on truckin’ BIG CED!

Big Ced is an icon in New York City’s hip-hop community. It has been an honor for me to know him professionally as he has written about many of my clients. Ced is one of those rare people who only deals with authentic individuals. You know, the real ones. So when dealing with him, you better come honest, humble and professional.

Theo PerryPresidentTheePee Co.New York, NY

BIG CED is an industry professional with a magnanimous personality and a smile to match. For almost twenty years, I have relied on BIG CED to enlighten his networks about my clients and good deeds and he has never once closed his door or acted like he didn’t care, and for that I am eternally grateful. Through his career transitions and evolutions, BIG CED has remained humble and authentic and ALWAYS reachable. In the media landscape it’s common to lose touch with people but through my different career moves, BIG CED has always been just a phone call away. Cheers to BIG CED and may everything he touches be as sincere as he is.

Thought provoking. Ced is one who inspires you to see different points of view. His writing is thoughtful and on purpose and causes you to think about what is being written. Although a quite giant in the writing arena, the power of his voice through words is unmatched.

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