The husband of Adesua Etomi who spoke during late Tosyn Bucknor’s Service of Song mentioned how he wept bitterly when he heard of the news.
Read his tribute below:
Tosyn.. spelt with a y not an i, because she was one of a kind.
Tosyn loved coke and Yoruba proverbs. She loved 9ice, MI, Rooftop MCs, and me. Tosyn was always full of joy and life. Tosyn was so SO kind.. to any and everyone.
She had one of the most popular voices on radio.. but it didn’t matter if U were a new artist or an extremely successful one. If she thought your music was good, she’d play it and she’d grant you an interview, without ever charging a dime.
She was sweet, energetic, a ball of love, light and life.. a blessing to anyone who ever got to spend time with her. We didn’t see or speak every day, but whenever we did, we picked up right from where we left off without missing a beat.
One of my favorite things about her.. and a lesson for all of us.. it’s not about how or when you die.. it’s about what you do with your life while you are here. It just seemed like Tosyn did EVERYTHING she wanted to do.

She’d have a radio show or a tv show one day. And then she’d put out her own music as an artist called Contradiction tomorrow. She’d do jeans for Genes one weekend, to support people with sickle cell, and then she’d turn around and do One Mic with Osagie, to support unsigned artists in need of a showcase. She was a speaker and a writer. A wife and a friend. An OAP and a humanitarian. A deep soul but more importantly, a kind one.
