A Grammy-nominated D.C. wordsmith is back with a buzzy new single.

Hailing from the land of the go-go by way of Southeast, Beau Young Prince has released his track “Oops”, a catchy track that samples Tweet’s 2002 Missy Elliott-produced classic “Oops (Oh My).”

The song isn’t about self-love like Tweet’s original track however, Beau Young Prince’s take on “Oops” mentions exploring with a partner.

Produced by Jailo, the rapper says it’s a sonic salute to fellow DMV artist Missy who hails from Virginia.

“Being from DC, I have always loved Missy Elliot, as she represents one of the most creative minds to come out of the DMV area, and music as a whole,” said Beau Young Prince via a press release.

“After going double platinum a few months back I decided it was time to celebrate with some new music. Oops is simply me paying homage to a legend while trying to add some new flavor to overall mix. It has that DC bounce and flow that will make anyone move. My producer Jailo and I made this in a matter of minutes, but the result is timeless.”

Prince plans to release the music video for the track next month and the single is already garnering attention.
