Though Meg has a few hit records under her belt at this point, the release of last week's "Savage" remix with Beyonce has taken her to new heights, literally. According to Billboard, the rapper's single has now marked a new milestone in her career as the song has officially climbed into the top 10. Following the remix with Beyonce, the song has now soared 10 spots from 14-4 marking Meg's first single in the top 10.
