Steady B

Steady B (b. Warren McGlone) AKA MC Boob is a former rapper from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States. He was in a group called C.E.B., which also featured fellow Philadelphia rapper Cool C, and he also worked together with KRS-One, who did some production on Steady B's third album Let The Hustlers Play. Steady B along with Cool C were part of The Hilltop Hustlers, a crew of neighborhood friends. Steady B was in part responsible for introducing Three Times Dope (3XD) with their debut album Original Stylin'.

Along with Schoolly D and The Fresh Prince, Steady B was one of the first wave of Philadelphia-area rappers to gain notoriety. With an appealing blend of battle raps and freestyle lyrics, Steady B's style reflected the post-Run-D.M.C./pre-Public Enemy era hip-hop. At his best, Steady B along with his first DJ, Tat Money, mixed well-written metaphors and wordplay with sparse yet catchy drum tracks and excellent scratching. After Three Times Dope's first album came out, beef between the two left Steady and Tat Money on bad terms. Tat Money left to join Kwame's band, A New Begining as their DJ. After releasing five albums with mixed success, Steady formed the hardcore group C.E.B. in an effort to update his style, and sales. The C.E.B. album failed, and Steady faded into obscurity. In 1996, Steady and his old C.E.B. partner Cool C were convicted of a botched armed robbery and the murder of Philadelphia police officer Luretha Vaird -- the first female officer to die in the line of duty in Philadelphia. To avoid a possible death sentence, Steady confessed to the robbery and was sentenced to life without possibility of parole. Cool C, the triggerman during the robbery, is on death row.
