T-Pain - Save You
Artist: T-Pain
Featuring: One Chance
Producer: Tha Bizness
Album: Freaknik: The Musical Soundtrack
Label: Konvict/Nappy Boy/RCA
Attention, ladies: on the latest leaked track off the Freaknik: The Musical soundtrack, the top hat-rockingest, Auto-tune-lovingest man in the music game announces that he’s ready, willing and able to Save You from a dreary life of work, childcare and getting hit on by “smelly fat dudes. And, since this is an exclusive world premiere, females who happen to be DJBooth.net readers are getting the jump on T-Pain‘s generous offer. Backed by Tha Bizness’ lush synth boardwork, as well as the glittering vocal harmonies of Nappy Boy R&B group One Chance, this single is a sugary slow-jam dripping with pop appeal – in other words, vintage T-Pain. Freaknik: The Musical is available now for download on iTunes, while the soundtrack will be hitting stores and online retailers – when else – on 4/20. In the meantime, keep your browsers locked to the Booth – we’ll be premiering another track tomorrow, the 19th.
This song first appeared on the
R&B / Pop Chart

Really diggin' the laid back vibe on "Save You." Traditionally, I enjoy my Pain with an insane amount of energy and ready for the club scene, but this is catchy change of pace.
I would have liked to hear more of One Chance - who as a group is very talented - but that will come in time. Say what you want about Teddy, but the man knows how to make ear candy.

Classic pain right here. This brings me back to the i'm sprung days. Have not heard a slow pain song like this in years. Keep the good music coming.

Almost reminds me of "Change" and the older Pain, which is how he should be. That production is some of the best I have heard with him in a long time. This is close to a 4.5 Stars for me.

I have always have a hard time liking T-Pain when he slows things down. I mean Bartender was great but outside of that I really don't like it when he lays down some R&B work. Just doesn't really appeal to me and I feel it isn't his strong point. Faheem is all about "club bangers", not "bedshakers."
"This goes out to all the wannabe strippers in the world." Seriously I need to find these women. One Chance did a decent job with the song, would have like to hear more of them than Teddy on this one. Even after the song is over all I can think about is how this song is dedicated to all the wannabe strippers. I might not like this song all that much, but I have to admit T-Pain is hilarious for that one, 2 and 1/2 stars rounded up. |

This sounds like something that would of been off his first alubm, remember Sprung and I'm N Lov (Wit a Stripper), yeah this would of sounded right at home. Though I'm tired of autotune, One Chance and Pain both sounded great over this type of relaxed beat.

I'm also (like Z) a big fan of the laid back vibe on this one. However, I too like my Pain with more energy.
I actually enjoyed One Chance quite a bit on this one. It would have been great to hear them on the track a bit more but they serve their purpose; I would have preferred their input with a bit less auto-tune (it's not like they need it) though. Production is real nice on this one as well. Banger. |

I'm not gonna lie, autotune is a guilty pleasure of mine, always has and always will be. T-Pain is a magnificent artist that has really risen to the top over the years.
This track is very laid back and smooth like many have said. With that said and done, laid back and smooth, added with some Teddy Riley on the auto tune our always an A+ in my book. This song is no exception. The production sounds great and T-Pain never lets me down. This is a Banger! |

This is a decent song, and the production is exceptional, but this is just the same washed up T-Pain track. It sounds way too much like "Bartender" or "Can't believe it" to be considered fresh material. The Bizness however, handles business.

It sounds like t-pain is going back to his rappa ternt sanga style where he has amore slow and calming effect on his songs. This is how he first became famous with genuine lyrics. One Chance really brings this song to banger status though. Their vocal abilities support t-pain and they make a good tag-team. Excellent production for the ladies and even the guys can nod their head to this.

I don't really like Pain on slow jams...I rather hear him on a hook of a radio hit. Still though I have to give him props because he has had success regardless. Tha Bizness didn't really impress me much with the production and I didn't even recognize a feature by One Chance until I listened again. I guess they aren't the main attraction to the song but damn they could have at least gotten more of a chance to shine. Overall I just can't get into this song at all even after listening to it multiple times...sorry Teddy just bring the energy and hype back!

I almost forgot about One Chance. They're actually my least favourite part of this song, though. This might require another listen.
Really smooth vibe here, and T-Pain only added. |

As the main artist, I think T-Pain is actually stronger on these sorts of songs. Just look at his track record on slower R&B track (Buy You A Drank, Im In Love With A Stripper, Cant Belive It, etc).
To this song, all the elements of this track came together to make one great song. Nice hook, nice verses & a nice chill beat from Tha Bizness |

Cool laid back vibe, but T-Pain's performance is 1/2 step over pedestrian. Can't he do 1 song without auto-tune? Is he a rapper or a wanna be singer? either way, why not be good at at least 1 of the 2 styles before butchering both & wasting great beats

This is the best song from Freaknik the musical, when the song starts of you get that great feeling of relaxation. Song doesn't maintain that high level, but still 5 stars for turning that 1 min from the musical into a song like this.

Feels like the vocal drags behind the pace of the beat. In fact, the beat should be tuned down to go with the guitar. If this is going for smoothness, then it should feel like I'm floating on a pint of Guinness.

Freaknik: The Musical was the joint, and "Z" was right about Pain creating that Ear Candy. T-Pain is talented, and is a good business man. He knows his niche, and does what he does well.

This def is classic Tpain, but i dont know if thats a good thing. To me after about one listen to a new Tpain song, it begins to blend in the rest of his songs. Maybe it is just because i am sick of autotune along with the rest of the rap world, but I feel as if some true emotion is lost in autotune. I know it's Tpain's thing so I can't hate on it too much, but I just cannot take the autotune anymore

DJZ i gotta agree with the laid back vibe and loving the way it started reminded me of the buy you a drink T-pain.
i could get down too this song because its pleasent too the ears haha shout too the wanna be strippers in the world. its funny because there both using vodocord or whatever that is but you can still tell the diference in their voice so that's good. 3 stars song production is definitly on point but i wonder how much better it would be if mario or neyo had their shot at this beat. |

I have to admit that this is a side of t-paine that I could get used to. Tha Bizness has really been puttin out some dope tracks lately. Overall, something I could really close my eyes and nod my head to. |

Nothing wrong, nothing new. It's just the same song/topic with different singers. Oh, not even that, it's the same singer? ... -_-
The only good thing about this is to know One Chance is still there, so maybe we'll get the chance to hear them soon (pun intended). |

the bizness had me nodding my head straight away. as other booth members have already mentioned this sounds a lot like 'cant believe it' and 'bartender' which is a good thing for me cos i really liked both of those songs. maybe the lyrics arent as appealing as the afore-mentioned tracks but it doesnt put me off too much. one chance were brief so i didnt get enough of a listen to make an accurate judgement. high rotation i reckon.

I'll take this song to Reverse Cowgirl any day!!
Pain is humorous at his attempt to be sensual. I can't relate too much to the struggling stripper lifestyle but I appreciate T-Pain targeting an audience that is degraded by Hip-Hop and American Society. In my opinion you can't take this song too seriously; "Smelly Fat Dudes" is proof of that. Only T-Pain can pull this off and he does so very well |
