Some feminists critiqued the song "Captain Save a Ho," which chastises men for taking care of a woman and children that are not his own. Davarian Baldwin notes that it portrays black women as gold-diggers who use their sexuality to take black men's meager earnings.[3] In the pimps up, draws down bargain rappers engaged in with their groupies, to be a "Captain Save a Hoe" by parting with hard-earned dollars came to be viewed as worse than being a "mark" or a "busta".[4] The song was praised by critics for its 1970s-sounding "radio-friendly, laid-back groove".[5]
