Early life
Puzić was born into a Muslim Bosniak family in the town of Odžak. He had two brothers named Adem and Bahrija. The latter was also a professional singer. Meho and Bahrija recorded two songs together, "Pjevaj brate" (Sing, Brother) and "Ko čaršijom konja jaše" (Who is Riding a Horse Down the Bazaar), and released them on an extended play titled Meho i Bahrija Puzić in 1974.
Career
He worked as a bricklayer before becoming a professional singer and releasing his first single in 1966. In 1969, Toma Zdravković wrote a song entitled Majko, majko (Mother, Mother) for him. Puzić sang the song in a duet with his wife Hanka.
Personal life
Meho Puzić died, holding his wife Hanka's hand, on 25 June 2007, a month shy of his 70th birthday. He died a little over two months before his colleague and friend Safet Isović's death on 2 September 2007.
