Columbia’s Jawsh 685 X Jason Derulo continues to grow with “Savage Love (Laxed-Siren Beat),” which is up and over 300 spins. Look for a handful of debuts this week including Interscope’s Lil Mosey with “Top Gone” f/Lunay, Republic’s Amine with “Compensating” and Def Jam’s Jhene Aiko with “BS” f/H.E.R. all jumping on the chart.
