Calling Steve Lacy a 1 hit wonder is wild

Calling Steve lacy a one hit wonder is beyond diabolical 😭

I can’t hear a thousand miles without thinking of Terry Crews in White Chicks.

Steve lacy disrespect cannot be tolerated

You can’t call someone a one hit wonder after 1 year.

The disrespect to Ella Mai, Steve Lacy, and Hozier 💀

steve lacy is NOT a one hit wonder. He been in the industry for a long time and has a dedicated fanbase

Ella Mai’s 2nd hit “Trip” reached #11 on Billboard. Not sure why shes considered a One Hit Wonder. At least give Steve Lacy another year before writing him off.

Lists like this just shows how brutal the music industry really is. Takes so much for artists to keep their heads above water. And the disrespect to Steve Lacy must stop lol.

Steve Lacy may actually be the next big producer so even if he’s not the artist he’ll be making hits none the less

Calling Estelle, Ella Mai and Steve Lacy one hit wonders is crazy to me. Also teach me how to figure may have charted I’m 2010, but it fed came out before that because we danced to it at grad night in 09.

Fun fact 9days lead singer is still married to the woman who the song was about. They are both currently teachers at the same school and have 2 kids. Nice people.

“I Love It” is turning 10-years old and we still ❤ that song.

Hozier was never a one hit wonder . His still going strong...

Not gonna lie I kinda feel like Rude by Magic should be on this list

Vanessa Carlton was not a one-hit wonder. She had a follow-up hit with "Ordinary Day".

Someone that I used to know is still the GOAT fr

Steve Lacy in the thumbnail???? im getting HEATED

If you don’t jam out to A Thousand Miles with your windows rolled down while staring into peoples eyes singing every word at a stop light, you’re doing it wrong 😂

Vanessa Carlton had some smaller hits and I have seen her live in acoustic venues. She may not be a “star”, but she is still good

“Whine Up” became one of the best songs in 2007 and also one of my most favorite songs of all time.

Steve Lacy isn’t a one hit wonder he literally just dropped the album 😭

Steve Lacy had a hit before Bad Habit and after Bad Habit. So dumb.

2001's Hit Em Up Style is my jam! That still gets rotation. This list is starting off right

WatchMojo calling Steve Lacy a one hit wonder is proof that people only follow the virality of a song, bc Steve Lacy has made so many hits, and even his non-viral songs are just beautiful

2000: Nine Days- Absolutely (Story of a Girl)* 2001: Blu Cantrell- Hit ‘Em Up Style (Oops!) 2002: Venessa Carlton- A Thousand Miles 2003: Fountains of Wayne- Stacy’s Mom* 2004: Howie Day- Collide* 2005: Daniel Powter- Bad Day 2006: Gnarls Barkley- Crazy* 2007: Cat Deluna feat. Elephant Man- Whine Up 2008: Estelle feat. Kanye West- American Boy 2009: LaRue- Bulletproof 2010: Cali Swag District- Teach Me How to Dougie 2011: Gotye feat. Kimbra- Somebody That I Used to Know* 2012: Icona Pop feat. Charlie XCX- I Love It* 2013: Hozier- Take Me to Church* 2014: Walk the Moon- Shut Up and Dance* 2015: Desiigner- Panda* 2016: Saint Jhn- Roses 2017: Portugal. The Man- Feel It Still 2018: Ella Mai- Boo’d Up 2019: Tones and I- Dance Monkey 2020: Glass Animals- Heat Waves* 2021: Gayle- Abcdefu* 2022: Steve Lacy- Bad Habit* *My favorite songs.

Calling Blu Cantrell a one hit wonder seems a bit of a stretch since she did have another with Breathe on her next album

There is a difference between an artist with *only one* hit as opposed to an artist with a song that is clearly more popular than most songs in their discography...Ella Mai's most popular song is Boo'd Up but that's not the only hit she's had...☹

i truly don’t understand Estelle never went viral. she has a great voice. she played Garnet in Steven Universe. She sang beautifully.

calling Hozier, Walk the Moon and Glass Animals “one hit wonders” is an absolute slap in the face to their discography. same for Portugal The Man

NO YOU DID NOT PUT ELLA MAI ON THE LIST . None of her hits have reach the peak of boo’d up but still she still followed up with hits and her album in 2022 was well received 😅

Story of a girl, a thousand miles, collide, bad day , crazy, AMERICAN BOY🙄, bulletproof(yaassss), teach me how to dougie (Mbone got murdered, etc) use to RUN RADIO DISNEY CHILE😂

Really put Steve Lacy on the Thumbnail

Calling Ella Mai a one-hit wonder is WILD

These one-hit wonders are certainly unforgettable. Merry Christmas to everyone.

I have been watching most of the video that are post on this channel for quite some years. And I'm so happy to see that you guys recognize our Guyanese artists🥰🥰 I'm bursting with excitement when you guys mention Guyanese artists🇬🇾🇬🇾🇬🇾🇬🇾

Steve has dropped hits since his time with The Internet. Very much cap on that part

Glass Animals really deserves more recognition aside "Heat Waves" (brilliant song in my book, btw). I've spent the last several years listening to their other song, "Gooey" on the radio. Also worth another listen.

First of all Steve lacy has released plenty good projects before his great album this year and still has plenty of potential

I don't think Kat DeLuna was an One Hit Wonder, she had pretty popular tracks beside Whine Up, like Run the Show and Drop It Low

Can we have a list of one hit wonders from each year of the 90's?

Lizzie McGuire was my first exposure to the song

This list made me rediscover my love for alternative music

Not have Hoobastank’s The Reason on this list is criminal

somebody that i used to know has this melody that is indeed different from what we use to hear, it's addictive and i don't stay more than one week without listening, now that's a masterpiece

Somebody that I used to know still breaks me 😢

I would argue that Estelle has found fame in Voice Acting... Have you heard of some of her songs from Steven Universe?

Ella Mia is not a one hit wonder. She was just on tour with Mary J this year

“Bulletproof” is such a great song.

Somebody needs to make a Spotify Playlist for this

The picks from the 2000-2010s are spot on and sooooo nostalgic! The mostly recent ones...hmmmm. I think it's too soon to tell about the artists!

Before watching this I already know “Rude” is gonna be the song for 2014

Always assumes Stacy's Mom was a Sum 41 / Blink 182 song

Glass Animals is easily one of my top artists and deserve way more recognition

I mean” forget you”was big too so how was Charles a one hit wonder

Most, not all, but most one hit wonders have raw talent and are REAL musicians. Tells you a lot about the music industry.

Shut up and dance is still one of my favorite songs 😀 (And Walk the moon became one of my favorite bands because of this song)

Was Blu Cantrell’s ‘Breathe’ not a hit? It went to number one in the UK.

I don't care what anyone says, I'll forever love Estelle's voiceover for Steven Universe. A beautiful woman with an voice from another world. I said it, now come at me. I still have launch codes around here somewhere...

Nah because I know you did not just call Hozier a one-hit-wonder. He’s not as mainstream, but he still has a large(committed) fan base.

Imagine this comments section if “Call me Maybe” was listed

Breathe by Blu Cantrell was way better than hit em up style IMO, It was internationally just as successful but in the U.S it only made the Top 50 of the Billboard 100.

The early 2000’s were such a prime period for pop music. Blu Cantrel, Vanessa Carlton and Fountains of Wayne all have such great albums that should have been a lot bigger!

I met Venessa Carlton at the Cincinnati airport going through security. The wild part was her song was playing in the terminal.

I still love bulletproof. Always makes me feel so invincible

I recognized more than half (12/23) of these songs, which amazes me. I really thought it would only be 1 or 2, if any at all.

love how catchy song that we remember is on the list love it.

"Somebody that I used to know" is catchy af

Ok......Ella Mai is FAR from a 1 hit wonder. Not only did her debut album have a couple rated songs, but she's also had HUGE features on a couple of very big singles like What You Did with Mahalia and Keeps On Fallin with Babyface.

“Even though it’s too soon to see which direction Lacy’s career will go in” THEN WHY IS HE ON THIS LIST LMAO

Also before we get started. That glad you came song better be on here from The Wanted. Never seen a boy band fizzle out that fast from a song that big.

This was my first time hearing some of these songs.

Crazy isn't a 1 hit wonder since Gnarls Barkley have others hits after this song

Howie Day is very underrated. Back in the early 2000's he sang a cover of All Along the Watch Tower which led into Halloween. It was a live performance and man... it was amazing. She says is also a great song. If you ever get a chance to go to once of his concerts... do it!!

Willa Ford's "I Wanna Be Bad" is still pretty catchy.

2022 pick feels like Jumping the Gun!

Gotye wasn't a one hit wonder, he just didn't want to continue the fame.

Y’all actually understood what Designer was saying on “panda”? Cause I didn’t

These songs on this list every single one of them are certified Hood classic

Who else can’t NOT think about Terry Crews in White Chicks when that song comes on? Lol 😂 Also, hats off to the Stacy’s out there who grew up when that song was released 👏🏽

The 2023 pick feels like Jumping the Gun! The picks from the 2000s-2010s are spot on and so nostalgic! The most recent ones... hm. I think it's too soon to tell about the artists!

Hozier being a one hit wonder and immediately having a hit song a year later is incredible

Steve is an INDIE artist. His songs Dark Red & C U Girl are very popular & well known within INDIE circles.

American boy is absolutely iconic

Thanks for reminding me of the past songs that inspires me still. But, I was expecting to see 'James Blunt - You're Beautiful' in these list.

HOZIER ONE HIT WONDER!?!!?!?!?!? Don’t piss me OFF

WALKTHEMOON is still making amazing music. I recommend Tiger Teeth, Giants, and Lost In The Wild was just being used on TikTok recently I think!

People need to understand that being relevant in the music industry, no matter how talented you are nor how good your music is, is extremely rare....to get to be a one hit wonder is also rare and if you become one you should be more than proud because you'd accomplish what 90% of artists will never achieve.

I love being in the com shop all day, cause I always go there for somebody that I used to know and collide.

Estelle & Hozier are not One Hit Wonders tho...

I feel like Macklemore should’ve been on the 2012 list, because his career was a rise back in 2012, and then his fame was destroyed after he won 4 Grammys: 1 for Best New Artist and 3 in the rap categories (Best Rap Album, Best Rap Song, and Best Rap Performance) over Kendrick Lamar. He was utterly disappointed about winning over Kendrick because his album was better than Macklemore’s which won for “Best Rap Album”. Kendrick didn’t care and said he shouldn’t feel guilty and praised Macklemore’s win. Macklemore kept making more music until he fell off and lost his viral fame after breaking up with Ryan Lewis. Charli XCX’s status is not dead in her country than in the US.

Still listening to most of these songs.

I discovered La Roux on an episode of Absolutely Fabulous. :D

Kylie Minogue was a one hit wonder for like 12 1/2 years "Locomotion" in 1988 to "Can't Get You Out Of My Head" in 2002 and more followed after that. It's too early to tell for some of them.

Calling Hozier a one Hit wonder is weeeeird.... 😂😂😂😂

A lot of these bands aren't One hit Wonders, they just aren't the mainstream popularity anymore.

Not gonna talk about Gnarles Barkely actually being Danger Mouse & Cee Lo with a historically long list of hits from their previous work huh....yeah whatever Goodie Mob. Bo! Crazy.

You are getting your years mixed up; Take Me to Church by Hoizer was a huge hit in 2015 and Panda by Desiigner charted in 2016.

calling hozier and steve lacy a one hit wonder is BEYOND crazy
