โWho We Areโ finds Toronto artist Nicole Huff turning a pop anthem into a revolution. Co-written with Jonah Cappa and Roy Hamilton III, the track sits right at that crossroads moment where youโre done shrinking for people and finally ready to grow on your own terms.
The song eases in with pulsing low-end and a shimmer of revving electronics, then Nicoleโs voice arrives like a confession in a late-night voicemail. She speaks first, lusciously calm but firm, that she just needs to get this off her chest, and if someoneโs been playing games, theyโre only fooling themselves. That spoken intro feels almost cinematic, like the scene before the main character finally walks away.
When the verse blooms, the thumping beat kicks in and her thick, husky vocal wraps around the melodyโtender but unbreakable. The synths churn underneath, giving the track that sleek, modern pop sheen while leaving plenty of space for her voice to breathe. She leans into the metaphor of a clam and a pearl, flipping vulnerability into value. Sheโs not begging to be seen, sheโs realizing sheโs been luminous the whole time.
The chorus lifts with a subtle rush, as the drums hit harder, the electronics swell, and Nicole sings about breaking out of shells and refusing to be afraid to be who they are. Itโs less about screaming rebellion and more about steady, grounded self-acceptance. Female empowerment, here, is delivered with poise.
By the final pass, โWho We Areโ is a mirror held up gently but honestly. Itโs the kind of track you play when youโre done asking for permission and ready to define yourself, even if your voice shakes a little while you do it.
