feel very fond about these artists

ranking the bands or artists who once
saw chart success but for one reason or
another have since fallen out of favor
with their audience for the record our
intent isn’t to be spiteful or mean with
this list look rather to take a
light-hearted look at musicians who
could be perceived as relics of their
time or one-hit wonder if it was a plop
of Joel off school bit
check out the hook while my DJ football

number 10 Lou Bega she tastes like you
know it your friends know it heck even
your mom knows it it’s Mambo number 5 a
1999 hit from the German born pop artist
Lou Bega number of facts to be fair the
songs modern update of a Perez Prado
track from 1949 doesn’t really sound
like anything else released on the pop
landscape during that time and Lou
Bega’s performance with charismatic as
hell on both the song itself as well as
the accompanying video clinic
Erica homicides subsequent efforts
failed to see comparable success to
Mambo number 5 unfortunately while many
music banks simply see Lou Bega as too
much of a one-hit wonder – ever mount a
substantial come back onto the
international scene number 9
shaggy pop reggae dancehall it seems as
the shaggy could you know wrong back
when he first burst onto the scene back
in the 90s this rom target customers are
on return for song the dark and handsome
Jamaican with the gravelly voice may be
best known for his boombastic hit from
1995 but shaggy also struck gold with
his hotshot album in 2000 which featured
such singles as angel and it wasn’t me
quickfire Hamza – oppa top 4 disturb our
carbanion all of us are on kaha although
the singer still writes records and
performs today his profile has faded
significantly in the years since his
early success will audiences ever return
to Shaggy’s unique style of pop reggae
fusion only time will tell
[Music]
number 8 B 4 4 yikes
where do we start with this one maybe
it’s the cliche boy band arrangement the
ridiculous video clips like get down or
those cringe-worthy clothes haircuts and
10 jobs which make b44 terrible
[Music]
or maybe it’s a group pension for
overblown production and studio magic
has labels them a relic from the teen
pop obsessed climate of the early
millennium either way
this Canadian boyband was actually
nominated for a Juno Award back in 2001
in the Best New Artist category so they
were obviously doing something right
fast forwarding to 2017 however well
some music is just better off left in
the past
[Music]
number seven Ashlee Simpson poor Ashlee
Simpson
it couldn’t have been easy being caught
lip-synching on Saturday Night Live or
being booed during a performance at the
2005 Orange Bowl
or being married to follow boys peak
went still Jessica’s little sister
soldiered on in the years following some
embarrassing public image snafu even
releasing a record in 2008 bittersweet
world which received some critical
praise
unfortunately most Ashlee Simpson fans
have probably left the building by this
point in 2017 leaving little question as
to whether there’s any demand for her to
mount any substantial comeback
[Music]
number six Soulja Boy Sonic it may
whether you call this next artist
eligible young Draco or by the more
unwieldly moniker Soulja Boy tell him
there’s no denying that the Andre Cortez
way has struggled to mimic the early
success he achieved after dropping his
debut single crank that Soulja Boy
Superman although Soulja initially found
his audience thanks to some grassroots
marketing on YouTube this Chicago native
hasn’t exactly lit up the charts and
plan with any of his subsequent single
indeed it was only Soulja Boy’s debut LP
a soulja boy tell em calm but made any
marks at all upon the hip-hop world with
waves second and third album delivering
comparatively Bismil sales figures
traffic ever watches what a cop I’ll
walk around with your big little blocks
I feel my original scene later top
selling low and the puppies are with a
putt oh my god
okay number five eiffel 65 trashy Europa
where would we be without you this
Italian techno act never shied away from
such labels during their heyday even
choosing this term as a title for their
breakthrough 1999 debut there’s not much
substance to Eiffel 65 beat-driven
electronic sound with the group’s music
being designed primarily for the
dancefloor
not for pondering the meaning of life
[Music]
eiffel 65 most recognizable it was blue
a simple track which succeeded thanks
mainly to it’s maddening earworm course
and a bizarre sci-fi themed music video
eiffel 65 may still have bands in their
native Italy but we’re skeptical as to
whether or not that 2016 upload of new
material will lead any sort of 90s
techno revival you’re just number four
limp Biskit
stay away bull this is one of those days
speaking of late nineties revival is
there any demand for a new Metal
renaissance we’re not sure but if there
is we hopeless biscuit arrives late to
that party
this Floridian group were one of the
defining artists of this 90s metal sound
which embraced stripped-down dripping
and hip-hop elements as opposed to the
genres more traditional phallus have
been kind to the band or their singer
Fred Durst however with some fancy
olympus get more as a relic than
anything relevant to the metal teen of
today sure some younger metal bags may
point the derson company as an influence
with the band time and the foglight
seems to have come and gone
[Music]
number three Paris Hilton we know what
you’re thinking wait Paris Hilton was a
musician and sure we may be stretching
that term a bit when discussing the
famous heiresses musical career but her
single stars are blind actually earned
critical praise when it was released in
2006
Paris’s decision to move into reggae pop
and R&B circles with her debut album led
to excelling over 500,000 copies
worldwide a move that surprised many who
thought the album was going to tank Phil
Paris hasn’t exactly set the charts on
fire in the years since its release
making it highly unlikely she’ll ever
mount a musical comeback worthy of
conversation and critics we leave a
painting black number to crazytown
[Music]
okay we were wrong come back limp Biskit
all is forgiven
it’s hard to believe that this rap rock
Act once performs an Ozzy Osbourne
successful odd test tour but crazytown
were indeed once darlings of the 90s new
metal movement
this was banks largely in part to their
single butterfly which let’s face it
isn’t very heavy come on come Monday I’m
gonna – bill crazytown briefly managed
to cross over into the heavy rock crowd
before changing musical climate and the
band’s own personal demon took their
toll the band did return in 2015 with a
new album the brimstone sluggers but
crazytown has yet to make standout
tracks or regain any major chart success
before we announce our number one pick
honorable or dishonorable
[Music]
number one creep
millions of Creed fans can’t be wrong
and indeed it seemed as if this heavy
rock band could do no wrong back in the
late 90s this was thanks to three
multi-platinum selling LTE sold-out
tours and tons of adoring fans
nowadays however guitarist Mark Tremonti
focuses more on his band Ultra bridge
[Music]
while former vocalist cuts that front
the arts of anarchy project are just
illusion but earlier this is probably
for the best at some Thank You Creed as
a somewhat embarrassing example of
overly polished and produced part rock
just a few steps I of where the genre
would go in a few years time besides
does anyone really miss that on the nose
he proposed we didn’t think
