Celebrating Cedric Brown: An Artist and Inspiring Believer

In the vibrant community of our local church, one individual stands out, inspiring others through creativity, spirituality, and perseverance. Cedric Brown, a painter, songwriter, and devoted believer, has touched many lives with his story and talent. His journey of faith and art encourages us to embrace our unique gifts and share them with the world.

Cedric’s spiritual path began at the tender age of 15. Though he grew up attending church, it was during his teenage years that he truly started to understand who God is. He recounts this transformative moment as nothing short of a rollercoaster ride. “That journey, the moment I confessed, was the most challenging yet, but now that I’m a born-again believer, I feel incredibly blessed,” Cedric shares. This strong foundation in faith has guided him throughout his life, helping him navigate the highs and lows.

As a local artist, Cedric expresses himself through painting, transforming blank canvases into vibrant works of art. Although he previously worked as a contract painter, he now embraces art as a passionate side hobby. “I have many art pieces that haven’t been seen outside of Instagram, but they’ll soon be displayed in the public,” he reveals. His journey does not stop at painting; Cedric is also an accomplished singer, songwriter, and producer. He has traveled to cities like Seattle, New York, and even Jamaica, sharing his music with diverse audiences.

Despite his success, Cedric emphasizes the importance of resilience. “If I could give advice to my younger self, it would be to never give up,” he says. “Always trust in God’s guidance at every step.” This resilient spirit shines through in his work and interactions with others. He hopes to inspire young people to follow their dreams and nurture their talents.

One of Cedric’s favorite Bible verses is 1 John 4:4: “You are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.” This verse reflects the immense strength and potential he believes every individual possesses. Cedric encourages everyone to maintain a strong connection with God, as it fuels our ability to overcome challenges.

As Cedric looks toward the future, he contemplates the legacy he wishes to leave behind. “I want to leave this earth knowing I gave all I had to witness others succeed,” he states passionately. He believes that life is too short to be selfish, and he hopes to inspire the next generation to “pay it forward.” His dedication to uplifting others and sharing his gifts serves as a powerful reminder of the impact one person can have in their community.

In a world where challenges can often seem overwhelming, Cedric Brown stands as a beacon of hope and creativity. His commitment to his faith and art highlights the importance of following one’s passion while uplifting those around us. Let’s celebrate Cedric and the remarkable legacy he continues to build, inspiring us all to share our unique gifts with the world.

Why Did You Start My Black City?

A MESSAGE FROM BRANDON BORNES (FOUNDER OF MY BLACK CITY)

We often worry that we don’t have enough resources in our community to go around. When we see someone in our community doing what we do but better, we get a little nervous or intimidated. Instead of using competition to spur on our creativity, teamwork, work ethic and innovation, we become soo overwhelmed with our own fears and insecurities that we gossip, sabotage, or hurt one another. This has happened to many exceptional people in our community. We need to do better and lead by example. Our love for each other needs to be greater than our fear of failure.

If we had to simplify into one word what My Black City is about, it would be LOVE! Because Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.

When people come in contact with our brand, that’s what I want them to experience. It‘s not an easy aspiration to live up to, but we believe it‘s worth fighting for and it‘s what we need as a community.
