I think Coolio needs to be there

coolio had a couple of hits : fantasticvoyage,gangsters paradise and the other song i dont remember the title


i voted for luniz

Yeah He got that I C U When U Get There Too. I just remembered Gangsta's Paradise. But anyway, he'll always be remembered as a one hit wonder



Hell no, man. Ooh La La...Too Hot... 1-2-3-4... that's already six hit singles. Coolio ain't a one hit wonder.

Okay. my bad. Gangsta's Paradise was his only hit ova herre though  ;)

C U When U Get There was also a pretty big hit... and 1,2,3,4 was a semi-hit. Too Hot never really blew here tho.

Skee-Lo will always be the #1 westcoast one hit wonder to me... I Wish was a pretty huge song.

skeelo... never heard another track from him

he released Top of the Stairs as a single. This is the album version, but the single version is on the Money Train soundtrack, obviously it was not a hit.

I realized I missed some G-Funk one hit wonders... so I think I'll have a Westcoast One Hit Wonders poll... The G Funk Era later.

Skee Also Had Another Video From His Album He Released In 2000

I remember when that 1-2-3-4 (Sumptin' New) joint was on radio station rotation 24/7!

if you don't remember

Off 2 albums... Fantastic Voyage and Gangsta's Paradise Coolio had a good number of hits and made his mark in hip-pop culture.

Good lookin' out playa... Haven't seen this in years!

Another classic:

What is your definition of a one hit wonder? Cause both Coolio and Warren G sure are not one hit wonders ::)

while baby got back was his biggest hit, he also was known before that for songs like 'my posse on broadway' and 'my hooptie'....its a toss up for me between ahmad and mellow man ace
