Maurice J. aka Dj Meez was born and raised in the Valley of California. Growing up as a basketball/football player, being a dj was not the route Meez wanted to head in when he was younger. He always loved music, and he wanted to play every single instrument you can imagine. But the only instrument that he played was in middle school, which was a tuba. When Meez was in high school he played football all 4 years, and had various awards as a football player. He had the top universities offering him scholarships to go play for them, but they were not offering him enough money. So he ended up attending a junior college to play football, and major in business.After 2 years of playing football at a junior college, Meez decided to start his own club marketing & promotions company, and throwing events in the Valley. He started Deejaying house parties from a labtop and two speakers, and developed a following as a Dj in the Valley. It wasn't too long after that when Meez bought his first set of turntables, and taught himself the basics of scratching and mixing.He has been able to get booked at major clubs such as Forbidden City, Club Aura, Club Element, and Club Zen. Meez is also the official Dj of Up and Coming artist HollaDay of PacMann Musik. Maurice aka Dj Meez is currently working on creating his own Hip Hop and R&B indie label, and has graduated from the Music Business Program at the Musicians Institute.You can check out Meez's myspace page for any upcoming events (www.myspace.com/dshmoe)
