R&B/Pop Singer Maurice "Love, Life And Stereo" EP




Bio
Maurice is a singer/songwriter that completely embodies the freshness and originality that’s has been lackluster in today's music landscape. The Chicago, IL native is poised and ready to continue the rich history of Pop and R&B music that has come before him.  His soothing vocal tone is just as equally matched with the catchy melodies and creative story telling style that  comprise his songwriting abilities. His talent for songwriting has landed him the opportunity to write songs for a variety of artists such as the late hip hop rapper Heavy D, R&B crooner Mario , R&B songstress Chante Moore, emerging pop artist Jessica Ashley , and through invitation into songwriting camps for artists such as Jennifer Hudson, Rihanna, Luke James, and Jennifer Lopez.
Maurice's constant juggle between writing and his artistry has given him a chance to work with an array of producers. He has been able to create songs with the likes of some of the music industries best and the brightest  such as Chris Henderson (Jamie Foxx) , The Outsyders (Britney Spears, Keyshia Cole) , Fanatic (Beyonce),  JR Rotem (Sean Kingston, Jason Derulo),  and DemJointz (Rihanna, Christina Aguilera) to name a few. But now, he is ready to step from behind the pen and give you a look into his world with his upcoming EP “Love, Life, and Stereo".
