“No You And Me (Without The kids)” - Prience Moore

Feature

9 Oct

Seattle-based singer-songwriter Prience (Prince) Moore makes a striking debut with his soul-baring single “No You And Me (Without The Kids),” a track that turns an everyday encounter into something deeply human and universally resonant.

The story behind “No You And Me (Without The Kids)” is as real as it gets. The spark came from a grocery store moment where Moore overheard a couple arguing — the woman’s brutally honest declaration, “If we didn’t have these kids, I would’ve never married yo ass!” lodged itself in his mind. Rather than just a passing observation, that moment became the heartbeat of a song about compromise, resentment, and the complicated love that holds people together even when everything else falls apart.

What makes the track hit so hard is its authenticity. Moore doesn’t romanticize or dramatize — he tells it straight, and that truth resonates. His vocals carry a sense of lived experience, weathered but hopeful, while the production — handled by longtime collaborator Michael Miller of Unlimitedtalents — wraps those emotions in a smooth yet gritty soundscape. The combination feels intimate.

Moore recalls the recording process with awe: “Seeing my words turned into music, man, I can’t express how that felt — it was like magic.” That sense of discovery infuses every beat of “No You And Me (Without The Kids).” It’s not just a song — it’s the moment an artist found his voice. The collaboration with Miller was a turning point, with Miller effortlessly crafting a chorus to match Moore’s heartfelt verses, the pair finding their rhythm within minutes. The chemistry is palpable.

Lyrically, the track cuts to the bone. It’s about the emotional weight of partnership, the quiet sacrifices that people make, and the dreams that sometimes fade behind closed doors. Yet, there’s no bitterness here — just recognition. Moore’s perspective feels compassionate, even when confronting harsh truths. That’s what makes the song stick: it feels lived in.

Since that fateful session, Moore has gone on to write and record nine more songs, building momentum and a fanbase that relates deeply to his storytelling. Fans have told him the song mirrors their own reality — a testament to how universal his narrative is. “Most everyone dreams of a home with a white picket fence, two kids, and a dog,” Moore says. “Then they wake up.” It’s a line that captures the bittersweet honesty at the core of his artistry.
