The business is in his name, so naturally people are going to refer to him as the "boss" if you will. But you're both putting in an equal amount of work into it and the two of you know that it's taking both of you to run the business so it's most definitely belongs to the both of you.
But I really wouldn't get too upset about the fact that sometimes he says "mine" or "I". It's a people nature thing. We're naturally programmed to think about ourselves first - regardless of whatever the situation. As an example I often find myself saying or typing "well when I get married" instead of "when we get married" or "at my wedding" instead of "at our wedding". So I wouldn't worry about it.
The only thing that worries me slightly from your post is the way that he seems to be making the decision about letting your license run out without telling you the specifics on why it'd be a good idea. I'd ask him exactly what the tax lady said and why it'd be better to let the license run out as opposed to keep it going continuously, etc. But otherwise I really wouldn't worry about it. He's including you in everything still (except this one point) and he's still keen for the two of you to be business partners. Unless he starts planning gigs and going off to do them alone and taking all the credit for doing everything in the business I really wouldn't stress about it. But that's just what I think.

Fiance and I started a business in Oct 08. He'd been Djing for years for friends for free minus the fancy equipment. I suggested that we go into business. He's great at working a crowd and LOVES people. We work as a team. He currently handles our website as my internet is too slow to work on it. I handle the Myspace page and fliers, and business cards design. He takes care of making sure the taxes and what not are paid off as the business license is in his name, we felt it was easier this way for tax purposes. It's my vehicle that we use as our "company car", though he bought it for me as a surprise ( I really do have a great fiance). When we are at a job I'm the one in charge of all the music while he goes out and has a good time with the crowd (this is what makes us different from our competition). He'll dance with the single ladies, teach dances, do the group dances with them, etc. And I have to be honest I don't feel like I get the credit that I should because people do feel a little uncomfortable approching me at times because I do look like a child even though I'm 21. He tries to make sure to tell me that I do a good job and stuff, but it's the things he says when he's talking about it to each other and yea sometimes other people. After he got the taxes done he didn't ask my opinion he said "I'm thinking about letting our business license run out" me: "What?" and he explained that the tax woman told him she'd recommend he let the license run out (WTH? what sort of tax lady is she anyway?). And proceeded with "I'm not sure yet. I'll think about it". And sometimes he does call it "mine" (his) instead of ours. I've asked him many times if he really feels like it's "ours" and he assures me he does. But yet I still here this "mine" and "i" and of course from the clients he gets the most praise even though I'm there through all their planning and the event too. They'll say "we done a great job" at the event but when it comes to sending the letter of recommendation it's "JB done a great job, I'd recommend HIM to anyone". It's sorta like I was there too. I've seriously considered quitting but he begs me to stay on everytime I bring it up. How can I make things change? Is it "his" or is it "ours"?
