Fugees member Lauryn Hill released her debut solo album, The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill, on August 25, 1998. The album was a massive hit, and even became the first hip-hop album to win the Grammy for Album of the Year.

In the years since, Hill has spent her time performing and being featured on different projects, but she has yet to release a follow-up to the groundbreaking album.

Hill is far from alone in releasing just one complete body of work. There are many bands that, for a myriad of reasons, only dropped one full album. Let’s explore this musical phenomenon by making a playlist of artists and bands that were one and done.
