"Ooh, Ooh Baby" is the debut single by American R&B singer Taral Hicks. The song features a guest appearance by then–unknown Missy "Misdemeanor" Elliott, who was at the time an ex-member of DeVante Swing's act Sista. The song was released on June 18, 1996, as the first single from Hicks' debut album, This Time (1997). [1] A music video for the song was directed by Hype Williams, but it was never released.

The song debuted on the Billboard Hot R&B Singles chart on July 6, 1996, and peaked at No. 81 the following week. [2] [3]

"Ooh, Ooh Baby" has also been noted to be Elliott's second featured appearance on a single as a solo artist; the first being " That's What Little Girls Are Made Of" in 1993.
