Actually Jason Mraz performs a lot live moreso than most people think. He generated most of his fanbase at first through live performances, then became more exposed when he released his 2 top-40 singles (just like Maroon 5 did). He is one of the few performers who is awesome live by singing solely with his acoustic guitar in the background. So even if you don't here him on the radio much, he is not a one hit wonder.
I think the "new" Kelis will be a 1-hit wonder. Even though she has been around for a long time, "Milkshake" is the only song of hers that has had A LOT of exposure. Plus last week's Saturday Night Live proved that the "new" Kelis can't sing for beans. Another 1-hit wonder, and I'm probably wrong about this, is DJ Sammy and the song "Heaven." Ever since "Heaven" became overplayed I never heard a new mix by DJ Sammy that was as exposed as "Heaven" was. Remember Samantha Mumba? She had 2 top-40 singles and then suddenly disappeared. Oh, and Daniel Beddingfield became a 2-hit wonder, but I know he was in the bad car accident so that's excusable.
People I wish would go away:
Hilary Duff (this shows that 12yr old Disney fans can make anyone famous even if the person has no talent)
Jessica Simpson (she takes the dumb blonde routine too far)
Beyonce Knowles (too many reasons to list)
Kelly Osbourne
Girl groups that try to be "punk rocker-ish"
Sean Paul (I can't ever understand a word he says)
