Countin' Endless Bank is the debut studio album by American hip hop group C.E.B., It was released in July 6, 1993 on Ruffhouse Records. Recording sessions took place at Alpha Wave Studio in Philadelphia through August 1992 to February 1993. Production was handled entirely by group member Steady B himself. The album was an attempted comeback by members Steady B and Cool C, who were moderately successful rappers in the late-1980s but fell out of popularity in the early 1990s.
"Get the Point" and "Goes Like This" were released as singles with music videos. The album was a commercial failure, and the group was dropped by Ruffhouse soon after its release. Following Steady B and Cool C's arrest after their attempted bank robbery in 1996, the album remains as the final release by either artist.
