Nicole Huff is best known to most audiences as an actress — her resume spans Degrassi: The Next Generation, Netflix’s Tiny Pretty Things, and Luckiest Girl Alive alongside Mila Kunis. But with her new single “Entice Me Baby,” taken from her debut EP Who We Are, Huff makes a compelling case for why music should be considered just as central to her artistry as the screen.
At first listen, “Entice Me Baby” is sleek and magnetic, a glossy pop-R&B cut that pairs seductive lyricism with a late-night pulse. There’s a deliberate confidence in Huff’s vocal delivery — it’s smooth but commanding, airy yet intentional, the kind of vocal presence that doesn’t need to oversing to hold your attention. The production wraps itself around her voice, leaning into shimmering synths and understated percussion that allow Huff to drive the emotional core of the track.
What makes the single stand out is the balance between allure and vulnerability. Huff isn’t simply playing the role of a temptress — she’s narrating the tension between desire and trust, between the surface pull of attraction and the deeper longing for intimacy. That duality feels authentic, informed by her years of storytelling as an actress. In that sense, “Entice Me Baby” is more than just a song; it’s a performance that moves between moods with cinematic ease.
As the lead single from Who We Are, the track also signals Huff’s larger ambitions. This isn’t a one-off experiment from an actress dabbling in music. Instead, it reflects an artist who has trained across multiple disciplines — acting, dance, music — and is now synthesizing those worlds into something cohesive. The EP’s promise of exploring themes of identity and growth makes sense, but “Entice Me Baby” already feels like a statement of intent: Huff wants to be heard not just as a familiar face on screen, but as a musician with her own voice, perspective, and vision.
There’s polish here, but also room for evolution. If “Entice Me Baby” is any indication, Nicole Huff has both the foundation and the creative drive to carve out space for herself in pop and R&B’s crowded landscape. It’s an enticing first step into a new era.
