Many times exotic dancers are judged negatively for there choice of income. As someone who has a known past in the streets of Chicago as a hustler Teddie Cain has a different understanding. In his song “Save Somebody” he gives his fans a different perspective.
The song is a follow up to his ESPN 30 for 30 featured song called “Ghetto” that appearing in “The Benji Wilson Story” episode. And while some may think this is a “captain save-a-hoe” record, Teddie Cain Jr. finds a deeper meaning in saving someone and it’s not about the church like some would think on first listen.
According to Teddie Cain the song has a few different meanings. “In saying “Save Somebody,” I’m not coming from a negative place or saying that those ladies need help – hell they doin better than a lot of these niggas out here. I’m just saying that I know you get a bad rap for being a stripper and that makes a lot of guys insecure. I understand you hustlin for a greater purpose, so with my past we have a lot in common.” Teddie Cain explained.
