Nicki Swift you really think these were all accidental? You are blind! The music world is basically sign your name on this contract with satan or no fame. After you sign it they conviently whack you when you don't follow their rules,tell secrets,try to get out. If these people try to get out,WHACK. THEY disappear,heart attack,aneurysm, cancer,drug overdose. All which are done to them for not cooperating. Wake up nicki! You'd have to be blind not to know this!
Maybe ya'll shouldn't speak on rap & R&B artists, because Jermaine Stewart & Rob Base/E-Z Rock WERE NOT 1-hit wonders (just because their other hits NOT on the Pop, or Rock music charts) ..EVERYONE who listened to R&B stations in the 80s know that Jermaine Stewart's initial hit song was "The Word Is Out", in 1984 (and it is believed that he was MURDERED because he was writing a book which would have exposed famous celebs as homosexual) ..and it THE OVERWEIGHT DJ (E-Z Rock) who died, although you show the image of Rob Base, the rapper ..and they had another hit song in 1989 w/ "Joy & Pain" ..and EVEN I, a hip-hop head, know that Quiet Riot WAS NOT a 1-hit wonder group!
People throw around that one hit wonder words too easily. Quiet as it's kept Jermaine Stewart had another popular song "Say it again" Ok, technically it was not a "hit" but you know what I'm saying. Some even claim Cheryl lynn as a one hit wonder !
cloudfeather bigthunder ... What kind of mental gymnastics are you doing? All she did was point out that they made an error. Nothing about race or any opinion of white people looking alike was mentioned. How do you even get that out of a simple comment stating that the wrong person was shown?
Joy and pain was a good song but they're way more known for "it takes two" and other than that nobody messes with their music. They're definitely one hit wonders
Also, read that, Jermaine Steward was writing his memoirs, about, his relationships, with, 'male celebrities, upon his death ,and, his manuscript, 'vanished!?!!
Someone who misjudged the dose and took too much that killed him, but he didn't wanted to die. Some people take high amounts of drugs with the intention to kill themselves. This is not an accidental overdose, because they're hoping to die.
Shannon Hoon and Blind Melon were no one hit wonders. They were an amazing band that helped to define an entire generation of music. Shannon died way before he should have. Long live Blind Melon!!!
Alex Gregg well said my man. Slades merry x mas everybody is played over and over every x mas on radio stations all around the world. And has been since its release in 1973 spent 2013 at a x mas party in Hobart Tasmania. Most played record of the night. You guessed it. Merry x mas every body. By Slade. Its Christmas rock on noddy
Quiet Riot was really more like three big hits, and two were Slade covers. Slade had plenty of hits, so they really shouldn't be on the list. Blind Melon is unfortunate, great band, but only one big hit (No Rain), and a bunch of great songs that never became hits.
To call Shannon Hoon and Blind Melon a "one hit wonder" shows how little that the creators of this video know about music, or the impact that people and bands can have on music. Had Shannon not died then Blind Melon would have been massive, in much the same way that Mother Love Bone would have been had Andrew Wood not died.
simon boyland no it shows how little you know about music. The definition of a hit is generally considered singles that made the top 40 on Billboards Hot 100 list. Blind Melon had exactly ONE single that did that. No rain topped off at number 20, not impressive at all but still considered a hit. That is their only single that ever made the Billboard Hot 100 list. That is the epitome of a one hit wonder band. Yes you can say if this hadn't happened or this did happen things would have been different but that's not how it works and it has nothing to do with anybody's personal opinion of a band. It's black and white. How many singles made the top 40 on Billboards Hot 100. For Blind Melon that's exactly one and this they are the ultimate one hit wonder band.
Amen @simonboyland. The amount of talent that Shannon had was insane and if he had had a little more time on this earth, I think he would have written some monster hits. I guess BM could have been considered a one-hit-wonder but the fact of the matter is that Shannon's legacy has lived on the longest alongside Kevin DuBrow. That's what counts. Shannon is my favorite singer and I love Blind Melon with a passion.
Oh Steven, it shows how little you know my friend. 3 Charting singles in the top 50, pretty sure that is more than "one hit", 2 charting albums in the top 30, pretty sure again that isn't a "one hit wonder". As I said, had Shannon not died they would have been massive as would Mother Love Bone had been.
+simon boyland...So nice to see someone mention Andrew Wood. And, yeah, I agree it's unfair to call a band that was cut short due to a death a "one hit wonder." Moreover, that phrase is pretty derogatory, despite lots of highly influential singers technically falling into that category (i.e. Lou Reed).
Jermaine Stewart, Quiet Riot and Blind Melon are NOT one hit wonders. Geez! It only takes a couple minutes to research if you know nothing about music. smh
Jamel Ramseur and those other songs were chart topping hits?? Where? If those other songs didn't top the charts like We don't have to take our Clothes off, then he's a one hit wonder.
cali swag district did not invent "the Dougie" Doug E Fresh did. They wasn't even the first to make a song about it. Lil Will from Dallas was. "My Dougie" Soulja Boy was actually on Lil Will remix years before Cali Swag District track. CSD song just was on a national scale.
samuel moore how far back did Chi natives talk like that? Because Oakland used that kind of slang too to keep cops and feds from understanding their conversation. I think it’s a Philly thing too.
I would hardly call Quiet Riot a one-hit wonder. They had one platinum and one multi-platinum albums and another top 40 album. I'd say that's a bit more than a single hit that one-hit wonders are noted for.
Jermaine Stewart is actually one of the LEGENDS from the 80's music scene, definitely not a "one hit wonder"! And the"accidental cocaine overdose" comment...🤔
They slipped on a banana peel and landed nose-first into a pile of cocaine, then the person in back of them accidentally stepped on their back, causing them to inhale deeply. hehehe
Jermaine Stewart “say it again” Rob Base “joy and pain” Great songs ! I have family resting in the same cemetery Jermaine is at peace... I pay my respects to him when I visit family there
Since people don't seem to understand, accidental overdoses are real and tend to happen when you've been clean for a bit, then relapse and take too much without realizing how much your tolerance has dropped while you were clean.
@@judgewilson2410 but it's kniwn that if you do hard drugs(which is any drug thats not marijuana) there is a good chance you can die if you do it long enough or take a lot of it lol smh.
"Lesser known band SLADE?!" Do some fcking research. For one, total up how many hits SLADE had in the U.K. when they were one of the biggest acts on the glam rock scene (glam rock, NOT glam metal -- glam rock included other "unknowns" like David Bowie and T. Rex and Roxy Music). Quiet Riot covered a classic Slade song, and that plus "Mama were all crazee now," another Slade song, gave Quiet Riot their only significant hits.
Tell me about it, lol. But then the bias will always be towards what's 'hot' on Billboard to the American audience, like fuck all exists outside the US, hahaha. Slade were fucking awesome.

Nikki Swift, Quit Riot was NOT a One Hit Wonder Band. I am going to stop watching right here at #5 because Its clear you dont know the true definition of one hit wonder. Quit Riot?? Really, THUMBS DOWN
Slade wasn't a lesser known band, they're one of the most popular bands in British history. Their Christmas song is megaclassic over there. A lot of Americans don't know them because they weren't popular here for some reason.
In the summer of 1988, I was helping my friend's band in the studio. We got there early one day and there were these guys inside, making this crazy sampling song. We were all Metal kids so I never really listened to that music before and these guys were real nice. It was at Hillside Studios in Englewood, NJ. The studio is in Tony Bennett's son's house. It was Rob Base and EZ Rock. That song got VERY popular a few months after that.. EZ Rock was a good guy. RIP! Shannon Hoon is another terrible shame...
Cool video, BUT to say Quiet Riot (only) made it to #5 on the charts does kinda spit on the band. If you've ever been an artist (which I'm sure you haven't) you would know just how hard that mark is to get.
not these days. you can sell 50.000 in a couple of weeks you've probably got a number one or at least top 10 hit on your hands, 30 years ago you'd have to have sold millions.
When they say "lesser known" I think you have to take into consideration this generation. When Kanye West, Rhianna and Paul McCartney did that song together, there were people who LEGITMATELY thought Kanye had discovered Paul. A whole generation who know nothing about the Beatles. Kids today who think music from 2000-2010 is OLD SCHOOL.
Caroline Wright lmfao you do realise that's something called trolling. Those people leaving those comments on the vid were just making jokes or playing stupid to get reactions.
Uh ..NO! Those of us who listened to R&B music in '80s (primarily, BLACK people), know that his BIGGEST hit on the R&B charts was "THE WORD IS OUT", in 1984 - BEFORE "We Don't Have to Take Our Clothes Off", in 1986 ..Shit, that song didn't, even, reach the top 50 on the R&B charts; whereas, "The Word Is Out" was in R&B's top 20, cuz that was the effin' SONG!
Yeah and he stood me up in England. My cousin knew him from the neighborhood in L.A. After he moved to England my cousin hooked me up with him to show me around. What I really wanted to do was meet his friend Boy George. Hey it was the 80s! Ended up meeting Boy George on my own.
Kevin Dubrow, the brother of the famous surgeon Terry Dubrow, who is a talented surgeon from the show "Botched" unfortunately died from a drug overdose. I grew up listening to Quiet Riot, they were so popular when I was a teenager, they were one of the many bands I loved back then, kin the 80's.
bassangler73 Obviously they're not very educated on this subject. Quiet Riot is not a one hit wonder or glam rock. Back then it was all just rock n roll. No stupid labels like they have today to cause infighting.
bassangler73 ok you were off by one with Quiet Riot. In the US they had 2 singles hit the top forty, the general definition of a hit. One hit number 5 and one hit number 31. That's it for singles. So technically they weren't a one hit wonder but they were about as close as you can be. Come on feel the noise hit number 5 on the Billboard top 100 and Bang your head hit 31. That's it. Nothing else in the top forty.
Simple. You take more cocaine than your body can handle and it causes harmful effects. How fucking stupid are you people? You're literally the third shit-for-brains mouth breather here I've had to explain what an overdose is.
The Artful Dodger there are people who take more than they can handle of drugs in order to commit suicide. Many die by accidentally taking too much. That is how that works, duh. You're obviously misunderstanding the meaning of accidental
I never understood why they say "accidental overdose", how do they know the guy didn't take bad stuff or a lot to kill themselves since their career was not what they hoped?
I think what happens is they take the GOOD STUFF and because they are use to the bad stuff, they overdose because the good stuff is more pure and takes less to get high. I learn this from a girl that use to work in the porn biz. When they people in the biz make it to the big time, the drugs get better (more pure) .
Lol accidental means they unknowingly took more than they could handle. Street drugs purity varies a lot so your normal dosage, if you buy purer stuff, might kill you as it will have stronger effects your body can't handle. You can't know how much cut something has without taking it to a laboratory to be analysed. A junkie ain't gonna do that for sure. Plus, in some cases, they start rehab then they go back to doing drugs and still on their normal dosage but their body's tolerance to the drug has dropped in the meantime and that causes an OD. .
Iman Wooden I agree these people were just barely one hitters, let alone ever very hot. I guess if these folks hadn't fucked up maybe they wouldn't just be dead, and the sheepel would have thrown them another bone... until they get bored again.
Lamefoot Ekul quiet riot had several hits on the hard rock chart (we're all crazy now, metal health). Shannon Hoon did co-vocals on Guns N Roses hit Don't Cry as well.
Mervyn McCaughey I know, every Xmas on Dr Who Slade is played. i'm in USA and know that riot redid a lot of their songs like ' mama we're all crazy now'.
Blowing Free :- to be fair the stupid bitch didn’t write this load of old Bollocks, she was just shipped in to do a commentary to a video she knows nothing about.
@@itszombies7256 U twat ur a real Zombie who misunderstand real people comments! Charlie B is blaming deliberate overdosing and ur here talking crap while agreeing on exact same- useless trash talk!
Blind Melon was an awesome band..in the early 90's I was in highschool..and we all jammed to them. I have all of thier albums and went to see the new line up a few years ago. They rocked the house..but would have loved for it to have been Shannon. They came back out after show and hung out with a few of us..very down to earth guys. Never forget that night! ✌
I'm guessing this is about 'one-hit wonders' from a US perspective? Because I can assure you that Slade are certainly not a 'lesser-known' band than Quiet Riot in the UK; Slade are one of the top 100 chart acts in the UK.
Because his band only had one commercially successful song, yes. An album being quality doesn’t change the fact No Rain was their only significant airplay.
I didn't know that Scatman John was dead until one day I was telling my young cousins about this crazy song from the 1990's called Scatman. I decided to Google him and saw that he had passed.
I had no idea about Cali Swag District (CSD) two guys passing away. I'm so bummed, I rock their CD in my truck every day, kept wondering why they weren't making more albums. I'm so sad about this. RIP to them and condolences to their loved ones. So many young people dying now I find this out! I'm hurt! should have known! 💜
Jermaine Stewart wasn't a one hit wonder to the R&B World. He had songs to chart on the R&B, Dance, Top 100, UK and other European Charts. The dude was all over the Soul Train and American Bandstand.
Thank you for this video I enjoyed the trip down memory lane but so sad to hear about the loss of these young people. And of course the older ones. The senseless shootings and the drug overdoses terrible. And preventable.
The problem with this video is that it speaks to a lot of the problems black R&B, soul, and Hip-Hop artists have complained about for decades. Jermaine Stewart and DJ Easy Rock and Rob Base might only have a had moderate success on the mainstream music charts, however they weren't mainstream artists and had success on the black music charts.

Nicki Swift
A lot of people were aware of Shannon Hoon's passing...
Nicki Swift I only knew about the deaths of two members from Cali Swag District. I also had never heard of Shannon Hoon before.
P W Grey I wasn't. I didn't even know who he was.
The person y'all circled was Rob Base. He's still alive. The bigger guy in the background is DJ EZ Rock. He's the one who's dead. GET IT RIGHT!!
Rodney Davis they can never get this shit right on TH-cam
Damn shame of the unknown facts
I was skeptical about this one
You know white folks made this, they never get the facts right!!!! Only for their means!!!
Trust me they know, it's their way of being funny
Damn teach me how to dougie dudes passed young af
Cali Swag District story broke my heart 💔
I went to school with all of them. I knew M Bone since elementary
Same 😭
he died on my birthday im scared
I had no idea :(
Yes that was sad.
Maybe ya'll shouldn't speak on rap & R&B artists, because Jermaine Stewart & Rob Base/E-Z Rock WERE NOT 1-hit wonders (just because their other hits NOT on the Pop, or Rock music charts) ..EVERYONE who listened to R&B stations in the 80s know that Jermaine Stewart's initial hit song was "The Word Is Out", in 1984 (and it is believed that he was MURDERED because he was writing a book which would have exposed famous celebs as homosexual) ..and it THE OVERWEIGHT DJ (E-Z Rock) who died, although you show the image of Rob Base, the rapper ..and they had another hit song in 1989 w/ "Joy & Pain" ..and EVEN I, a hip-hop head, know that Quiet Riot WAS NOT a 1-hit wonder group!
Welp, you said everything I was going to... 100%
You are right..Jermaine had a hit called "The Word is Out" So he's not a one hit wonder
Lashid4u The overweight DJ? who is that, but you are right they were not 1- hit wonders, none of them actually. lol
People throw around that one hit wonder words too easily. Quiet as it's kept Jermaine Stewart had another popular song "Say it again" Ok, technically it was not a "hit" but you know what I'm saying. Some even claim Cheryl lynn as a one hit wonder !
Exactly 💜💜💜💜
1:55 What the hell is accidental cocaine overdose ?????
Oh no I slipped into this mountain of cocaine and had to snort my way out
Very sad
@@truncatela I'm going to Google that..overdosing is no accident
You snorted too much...... Accidentally! 😁
Probably too strong of a dosesage when they thought it was weaker
Jermaine Stewart, Quiet Riot, Blind Melon are definitely not 1 Hit Wonders. You should just retitle this Musicians that passed away.
THANK YOU!! I agree!!
T
H
😂😂😂
I know!
DJ Eazy Rock was not the person you showed. That is Rob Base. DJ Easy Rock was the "DJ" of the group. Rob Base is still alive.
Stacey Hawkins thank you! I was hoping somebody caught that!
Lol they can't tell them apart... pretty sad people...
cloudfeather bigthunder ... What kind of mental gymnastics are you doing? All she did was point out that they made an error. Nothing about race or any opinion of white people looking alike was mentioned. How do you even get that out of a simple comment stating that the wrong person was shown?
cloudfeather bigthunder no worries
I was going to comment the same thing.
"..lesser known band Slade..."
Seriously? Slade are legendary!
millerhxc lol my thoughts exactly
i think she is saying the song was written by slade and it is a lesser known track of slade's
troy harvey only lesser know to people who weren't alive at that time.
Well, if you're a clueless Millennial douchebag they probably are lesser known.
lokisgodhi I'm (fake) offended
Rob Base was not a one hit wonder.He had alot of good songs
Jeremy Mcquilliam to you lol
Joy And Pain and Get On The Dance Floor were hit songs for them as well by Billboard standards so Jeremy is right
Rob Base isn't even dead
I'm gonna assume they know it was DJ EZ rock that died a few years ago
What about “Joy & Pain” that was a hit..
Why did you keep showing Rob Base? He is very much alive. DJ EZ Rock is the one who passed away. They also definitely had more than one hit.
Not to mention they had two other hits: "Joy and Pain" and "Get on the Dance Floor."
I was about to post the same thing.
Joy and pain was a good song but they're way more known for "it takes two" and other than that nobody messes with their music. They're definitely one hit wonders
because white people swear all people of color look alike ....she's dumb and needs to quit
YEAH THEY HAD 2 AND THAT'S ALL IT TAKES 😂😂😂🤣🤣
Rob Base & Dj Eazy Rock had more than one song .. they also had “Joy & Pain”
I forgot all about that, thanks😊
That song is lit too
Did y'all just slip in that Magic Johnson may be gay?? Tf?? 🤔
Rare Scense 🤣😂🤣 looks like it🤷🏾♀️
(All) celebrities turned gay for money
Which would explain where that shyt with his son comes in play at
Also, read that, Jermaine Steward was writing his memoirs, about, his relationships, with, 'male celebrities, upon his death ,and, his manuscript, 'vanished!?!!
@@dshannon784 Most were probably, there, already.
Who the hell suffers an ACCIDENTAL Cocaine Overdose? 😐
Someone who misjudged the dose and took too much that killed him, but he didn't wanted to die. Some people take high amounts of drugs with the intention to kill themselves. This is not an accidental overdose, because they're hoping to die.
@@DimitarVankov as so many others have commented this same question, I'm very hopeful that it is understood by all that it's a rhetorical exclamation.
Why do you think that you cant overdose on coke and have it be by mistake? Most people aren't looking to die when they use
The chalk faces.
A question that has a simple answer doesnt make a good rhetorical question..makes the person asking look dumb and insensitive
*In all my life I've never heard of a accidental coke overdose*
In other words. They were killed by Hollywood to keep that money.
If you sniff alot of it you can overdose; your heart could take but so much. If injected into your vains that too can cause an overdose.
Lmao right!
I have y'all must be young heroin too
Shannon Hoon and Blind Melon were no one hit wonders. They were an amazing band that helped to define an entire generation of music. Shannon died way before he should have. Long live Blind Melon!!!

Eduardo Navarro happens to the best of us...
Let me introduce you to my little friend....wooops! *slips face first into pile of cocaine
I'm a #MeeToo
Eduardo Navarro you too?
Eduardo Navarro how does this keep happening
How is an accident if it is cocaine?
They slipped on a banana peel and landed nose-first into a pile of cocaine, then the person in back of them accidentally stepped on their back, causing them to inhale deeply. hehehe
Meaning he didn't intentionally try to kill himself by overdosing
Hey, do you know what's going to kill you?
that's what I'm saying!
Because he just wanted to get a high from the drug; he didn't intentionally overdose therefore it was ACCIDENTAL. Jfc
MC Rob Bass & DJ Eazy Rock also had another hit called Joy & Pain so actually he was a two hit wonder

Shannen Hoon was a major talent. He could have been a major face in the 90s grunge scene
Texasscout96 eh, he could sing, but he was a whiny, junkie too.
I thought Hoon died from a heroin OD.
it was heroin. he sang on the gnr song dont cry also in the video
Blind Melon was Swamp Rock, not Grunge.
His claim to fame beside that one top hit was appearing in the GNR top 40 hit video Dont you cry cause he was a friend of Axl Rose
That was not a picture of DJ E.Z. Rock in this video. That was Rob Base.
I'm so glad I've never stumbled and fall into a huge pile of cocaine like those guys having an accidental overdose.
I'm so glad I've never stumbled and fallen into a huge pile a dumb fucks who have no idea what the words "overdose" or "accident" mean.
Accidents and cocaine have a lot in common. Something MultiUnreal knows nothing about.
Since people don't seem to understand, accidental overdoses are real and tend to happen when you've been clean for a bit, then relapse and take too much without realizing how much your tolerance has dropped while you were clean.
If I die in a fast car I'm not asking for sympathy. If I crash over and over do I get government funding? No. Drugs are a suicide pact. No difference.
I Did,my cat was playin scrabble & whoaaaaaaa....
accidental cocaine overdose.? lol they fell in a mountain of cocaine or what?
lunatrics their intent was to get high not OD but the more you do it the more it takes until you accidentally take too much the intent wasn’t to die

jason jardine 😂
"Lesser known band SLADE?!" Do some fcking research. For one, total up how many hits SLADE had in the U.K. when they were one of the biggest acts on the glam rock scene (glam rock, NOT glam metal -- glam rock included other "unknowns" like David Bowie and T. Rex and Roxy Music). Quiet Riot covered a classic Slade song, and that plus "Mama were all crazee now," another Slade song, gave Quiet Riot their only significant hits.
Any which way Quiet Riot were no one hit wonders.
Tell me about it, lol. But then the bias will always be towards what's 'hot' on Billboard to the American audience, like fuck all exists outside the US, hahaha. Slade were fucking awesome.

Insert joke about the earth rotating around America here >>>>
Slade was never a popular band here, sorry to say. They are lesser known in the US.
Charles from Charles & Eddie passed away in 2001. Seriously. Would I lie to you?
Nikki Swift, Quit Riot was NOT a One Hit Wonder Band. I am going to stop watching right here at #5 because Its clear you dont know the true definition of one hit wonder. Quit Riot?? Really, THUMBS DOWN
Shawn Caughey Quiet Riot?
Thumps up for the thumps down.
Totally agree, Probably Nikki was not an eighties head banger. Too much rap and hip hop, too little metal these are indeed the last days.....
either way they suck ass
I'm pretty sure Nikki can't read above the fourth grade level. What a tool.
Slade wasn't a lesser known band, they're one of the most popular bands in British history. Their Christmas song is megaclassic over there. A lot of Americans don't know them because they weren't popular here for some reason.
Wow I didn't know D.J. Rock was gone. Rest in Paradise all of you
Yes. He died last year
man i miss Shannon Hoon.BLIND MELON WAS THE SHHIITT!!
Dan Seth agreed, and I would argue they were certainly not one hit wonders. Change, tones of home and Toes across the floor were some of my favorites
dont forget walk..
And don't forget Holyman n The Pusher
WhiteDwarfVR4 great songs, but not hit songs. That’s the difference here.
In the summer of 1988, I was helping my friend's band in the studio. We got there early one day and there were these guys inside, making this crazy sampling song.
We were all Metal kids so I never really listened to that music before and these guys were real nice.
It was at Hillside Studios in Englewood, NJ. The studio is in Tony Bennett's son's house.
It was Rob Base and EZ Rock.
That song got VERY popular a few months after that.. EZ Rock was a good guy. RIP!
Shannon Hoon is another terrible shame...
Cool video, BUT to say Quiet Riot (only) made it to #5 on the charts does kinda spit on the band. If you've ever been an artist (which I'm sure you haven't) you would know just how hard that mark is to get.
not these days. you can sell 50.000 in a couple of weeks you've probably got a number one or at least top 10 hit on your hands, 30 years ago you'd have to have sold millions.
They did hit the chart again with "Mental Health (Bang Your Head)" didn't they?
SuperDriven1 Quiet Riot will go down in history as the first Heavy Metal band to hit number one in 1983. Get your facts straight first.
Guerrilla Thrilla Metal Health was the name of the album and first song on the album. Not "Mental Health." Unreal.
so TRUE! Quiot Riot are NOT one hit wonders!
How sad that so many great celebrities have passed away. What's even worse, is how many have died due to drugs. R.I.P.
They are not forgotten. They became apart of all of us✊🏿
When they say "lesser known" I think you have to take into consideration this generation. When Kanye West, Rhianna and Paul McCartney did that song together, there were people who LEGITMATELY thought Kanye had discovered Paul. A whole generation who know nothing about the Beatles. Kids today who think music from 2000-2010 is OLD SCHOOL.
Agreed. Several times I've had to explain that the meatloaf in the movie 'Sausage Party' is in fact a performer named Meatloaf!
Caroline Wright .. LoL I remember my nephew telling me about MJ's song SaySaySay..with a new singer Paul McCarty..!
John Jones it's not just young people. I know an IRL Janie Jones, a middle aged woman who never heard of the Clash until I mentioned it to her.
Caroline Wright lmfao you do realise that's something called trolling. Those people leaving those comments on the vid were just making jokes or playing stupid to get reactions.
Caroline Wright Yep, preach. I know who Slade is and a ton of their stuff
And I prefer them to Quiet Riot
Jermaine Stewart wasn't a one hit wonder.
He definitely was. I didn't know he was dead, but my first guess was AIDS. Nailed it.
No, he wasn't. He did have two Top 40 hits, the other being "Say It Again" , which charted to #27.
Uh ..NO! Those of us who listened to R&B music in '80s (primarily, BLACK people), know that his BIGGEST hit on the R&B charts was "THE WORD IS OUT", in 1984 - BEFORE "We Don't Have to Take Our Clothes Off", in 1986 ..Shit, that song didn't, even, reach the top 50 on the R&B charts; whereas, "The Word Is Out" was in R&B's top 20, cuz that was the effin' SONG!
The w0rd is out...by js
Yeah and he stood me up in England. My cousin knew him from the neighborhood in L.A.
After he moved to England my cousin hooked me up with him to show me around. What I really wanted to do was meet his friend Boy George. Hey it was the 80s! Ended up meeting Boy George on my own.
Quiet Riot was hardly a one hit wonder band and calling Slade a lesser known band is ridiculous.
lilnorthnchick 71 Uhm they’re know and their biggest hit was come on feel the noise was all they did! Metal health wasn’t all that big
Shannon Hoon was probably one of the most underated singers for that time period.
Kevin Dubrow, the brother of the famous surgeon Terry Dubrow, who is a talented surgeon from the show "Botched" unfortunately died from a drug overdose. I grew up listening to Quiet Riot, they were so popular when I was a teenager, they were one of the many bands I loved back then, kin the 80's.
I like your channel but its unfair to call Quiot Riot a one hit wonder
bassangler73 can't belive metal health wasn't a hit?
bassangler73 Obviously they're not very educated on this subject. Quiet Riot is not a one hit wonder or glam rock. Back then it was all just rock n roll. No stupid labels like they have today to cause infighting.
bassangler73 ok you were off by one with Quiet Riot. In the US they had 2 singles hit the top forty, the general definition of a hit. One hit number 5 and one hit number 31. That's it for singles. So technically they weren't a one hit wonder but they were about as close as you can be. Come on feel the noise hit number 5 on the Billboard top 100 and Bang your head hit 31. That's it. Nothing else in the top forty.
I was just about to put that. Slade had many hit singles, while Quiet Riot had theirs, using a Slade hit!
Yes, although the one song made them popular, they were not a one hit wonder, this group is responsible for my love of Rock music.....
You forgot Falco and Baltimora. Look them up..
Accidental cocaine overdose? How does that work?
Simple. You take more cocaine than your body can handle and it causes harmful effects. How fucking stupid are you people? You're literally the third shit-for-brains mouth breather here I've had to explain what an overdose is.
The Artful Dodger there are people who take more than they can handle of drugs in order to commit suicide. Many die by accidentally taking too much. That is how that works, duh. You're obviously misunderstanding the meaning of accidental
Not all these were one hit wonders. A song doesn't have to make it to the top 5 to be a hit.
RIP to all the artistes here. I used to listen to all of them. RIP EZ Rock.
Quiet Riot was not a one hit wonder group. Redo the video!
He accidentally rolled up a c note and proceeded to accidentally pack his skull full of coke until his heart accidetally exploded.
I never understood why they say "accidental overdose", how do they know the guy didn't take bad stuff or a lot to kill themselves since their career was not what they hoped?
I think what happens is they take the GOOD STUFF and because they are use to the bad stuff, they overdose because the good stuff is more pure and takes less to get high. I learn this from a girl that use to work in the porn biz. When they people in the biz make it to the big time, the drugs get better (more pure) .
Lol accidental means they unknowingly took more than they could handle. Street drugs purity varies a lot so your normal dosage, if you buy purer stuff, might kill you as it will have stronger effects your body can't handle. You can't know how much cut something has without taking it to a laboratory to be analysed. A junkie ain't gonna do that for sure. Plus, in some cases, they start rehab then they go back to doing drugs and still on their normal dosage but their body's tolerance to the drug has dropped in the meantime and that causes an OD. .
I like the Quiet Riot cover of the lesser known Slade. Slade were huge in UK in the 70's. Hardly anyone would have heard of Quiet Riot in the UK.
Well you were right. I had no idea these guys were dead.... or alive, for that matter.
some of these, I really wouldn't call one hit hot wonders....
Iman Wooden I agree these people were just barely one hitters, let alone ever very hot. I guess if these folks hadn't fucked up maybe they wouldn't just be dead, and the sheepel would have thrown them another bone... until they get bored again.
Lamefoot Ekul quiet riot had several hits on the hard rock chart (we're all crazy now, metal health). Shannon Hoon did co-vocals on Guns N Roses hit Don't Cry as well.
CamaroAmx You're right I was definetly unfair. They all had their time, and place that is why we are watching this video, lol.
Sadly they all died when their careers were in a slump or their stardom was fading.
Lesser known band Slade???? Not in the UK
Mervyn McCaughey I know, every Xmas on Dr Who Slade is played. i'm in USA and know that riot redid a lot of their songs like ' mama we're all crazy now'.
Or Australia. Quiet Riot are basically a Slade cover band.
Mervyn - so true. I love Slade, never heard of Quiet Riot. Lesser known band indeed; this woman is an idiot.
Blowing Free :- to be fair the stupid bitch didn’t write this load of old Bollocks, she was just shipped in to do a commentary to a video she knows nothing about.
Still have "Slayed" and still love it! {I'm in the U.S.}
What is consider a "one-hit wonder?" Rob Base and DJ Easy Rock had other hits.
POV u searched “peanut butter jelly time singer death” and found dis
DJ EZ Rock died not Rob Base, get it right, and they weren’t a 1 Hit Wonder, they had Joy and Pain also that was a hit.
I saw Shannon in the thumbnail and I just had to say something--Blind Melon is not a "One-hit wonder".
Quiet Riot was not glam rock...they were METAL
May they rest in peace, but drug overdoses are not accidental.
Uh what? He took too much coke by accident lmao. These comments really show how dumb people are.
@@itszombies7256 U twat ur a real Zombie who misunderstand real people comments! Charlie B is blaming deliberate overdosing and ur here talking crap while agreeing on exact same- useless trash talk!
Blind Melon was an awesome band..in the early 90's I was in highschool..and we all jammed to them. I have all of thier albums and went to see the new line up a few years ago. They rocked the house..but would have loved for it to have been Shannon. They came back out after show and hung out with a few of us..very down to earth guys. Never forget that night! ✌
There's no such thing as an accidental cocaine overdose😂😂😂😂😂
Get the facts right and then properly title this video SMDH
"Accidental" overdose .... as opposed to???
Irma Gherd a pre meditated suicidal overdose.
I'm guessing this is about 'one-hit wonders' from a US perspective? Because I can assure you that Slade are certainly not a 'lesser-known' band than Quiet Riot in the UK; Slade are one of the top 100 chart acts in the UK.
Sad video. Unfortunately tomorrow is not promised to any of us.
The first one struck me like a bat and ball... wow!
Blind Mellon,no rain ,soup ,ton of home ,galaxy, its to bad they would have been great?
They were great !
Don't forget Change. Blind Melon were fucking amazing!
ThisRebirth And 'Toes across the floor' .
NOT a ONE HIT WONDER at all! Just because "No Rain" was their BIGGEST hit doesn't mean it was their ONLY hit!
Sandra Lynn it was their only significant airplay, that makes them a one hit wonder. They were awesome, but they only had one big hit song.
Um REALLY?! Shannon Hoon is a ONE hit wonder?! BYE.
Cleo Sanders lol I’ve never heard of them
Because his band only had one commercially successful song, yes. An album being quality doesn’t change the fact No Rain was their only significant airplay.
What about Change, or Tones of Home, or Galaxie?
Owen Harris not hits. Sorry. Doesn’t mean fans of the band can’t enjoy the songs, but they’re not hits.
Has to be a hit on the charts
Gotta few here that aren't one hit wonders
ALF CARJACKS THE CLOWN .. yes, all of them!
Never heard of any of them except Quiet Riot. After my time.
i like this musicvideo its nice and clear well directed looks like you used the same cam as i did to make my video
I love the 80's and 90's! .💜. 🎵Music was the 💩 back in the days. 💯
"Lesser known band Slade" Really??? And Blind Melon are far from one hit wonders.
I didn't know that Scatman John was dead until one day I was telling my young cousins about this crazy song from the 1990's called Scatman. I decided to Google him and saw that he had passed.
Scatman John should be on this list.
Wow crazy thanks for the video
I had no idea about Cali Swag District (CSD) two guys passing away. I'm so bummed, I rock their CD in my truck every day, kept wondering why they weren't making more albums. I'm so sad about this. RIP to them and condolences to their loved ones. So many young people dying now I find this out! I'm hurt! should have known! 💜
I'm sure you're confusing Rob Base with his dj
"Lesser known band Slade". Lol. Mmmkay.
Jermaine Stewart wasn't a one hit wonder to the R&B World. He had songs to chart on the R&B, Dance, Top 100, UK and other European Charts. The dude was all over the Soul Train and American Bandstand.
Oh I love Quite Riot!
REALLY!!! Shannon Hoon a one hit wonder....first time I ever heard that! He was amazing...all his work
Kevin Dubrow of Quiet Riot must of had a hair transplant in his latter years , Quiet Riot had 2 billboard top 40 hits
That's what I was thinking too or either he's wearing a wig.
Wig
Why they keep saying a accidental drug over dose... NO they died from drugs it was done knowing what could happen smh!!
All kind of mistakes! Even the article about Magic Johnson n Jermaine Stewart used “form” and not “from”.
Thank you for this video I enjoyed the trip down memory lane but so sad to hear about the loss of these young people. And of course the older ones. The senseless shootings and the drug overdoses terrible. And preventable.
The problem with this video is that it speaks to a lot of the problems black R&B, soul, and Hip-Hop artists have complained about for decades. Jermaine Stewart and DJ Easy Rock and Rob Base might only have a had moderate success on the mainstream music charts, however they weren't mainstream artists and had success on the black music charts.
A lot of these aren't one hit wonders.
"One hit wonders you didnt know were dead" Well no shit lol
Damn that's when coke was actually good!
THANKS💖
