Interesting facts and trivia about Savage Love (Laxed - Siren Beat). By Songfacts®.

Lyrically, "Savage Love" finds Jason Derulo falling for a girl who is using him. He is smitten, despite realizing she only hooked up with him to get back at her ex-lover. Derulo told RADIO.COM's Julia he is proud of the way the lyrics highlight an unhealthy relationship over a high-energy, danceable beat. "I feel like the juxtaposition of worlds coming together really makes this push and pull, cool feeling song that just kind of cuts through," he said.

"Laxed (Siren Beat)" blew up on TikTok in 2020, sparking the "Culture Dance" challenge, where participants show off their cultural roots while dancing to the song.

"Laxed" caught the attention of Jason Derulo, who wanted to sample it for his own song. However, rather than waiting for permission to be granted, he went ahead and recorded "Savage Love," incorporating the New Zealander's track. This sparked a widespread backlash and calls for Derulo to clear the sample. The two artists eventually came to an agreement, with Derulo and Jawsh 685 listed as joint artists. DeRulo also credits the Kiwi teen as sole producer, and also as a co-writer on the track alongside himself, Jacob "J Kash" Kasher and Phil Gress.
