MC Hammer was not a one-hit wonder. He was a superstar the likes of which the world has never seen or will see again.
I have a t-shirt promoting the MC Hammer dragster "Hammertime" and I get lots of compliments on it.

You know, I was thinking about that as I tossed that song down. I wasn't sure if he was a one hit wonder or not, but I could only remember 2 songs by him so I figured he just might be.
It would seem as though I was incorrect... [/b][/quote]
Actually I think you were right. He might have had a 2 songs, but he went from nowhere to being huge to being the butt of jokes in a pretty short period of time.
I believe he also had the problems with bankruptcy and reposessed mansions and all that. He can't even get a gig on "The Surreal Life".
Another one: The Ataris. They have the added humiliation of their one hit being a cover song. The Lemonheads might be in the same boat.
