Which rapper released the 2020 single "Savage", later remixed with Beyonce?

Megan Thee Stallion released the 2020 single “Savage,” later remixed with Beyoncé.

The original song appeared on Megan’s 2020 EP Suga and became one of her signature hits. Its Houston connection became especially notable when Beyoncé, also from Houston, joined the official remix. The remix added new verses and vocals while preserving the song’s confident, sharply rhythmic identity.

“Savage” was Megan’s first No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100. The Beyoncé remix also helped the song win Best Rap Song and Best Rap Performance at the 2021 Grammy Awards. A common mix-up is confusing the performer of “Savage” with Beyoncé, who appears on the remix rather than the original solo release.
