Bukar Mamadu
Bukar Mamadu is a Nigerian engineer, poet, songwriter and creator behind BukarSkywalker.
His creative work spans published poetry, human-written lyrics, music and AI-assisted musical production.
From loss, to poetry, to music.
Bukar’s journey into poetry began after the death of his mother, Elizabeth Gadzama, who passed away at the young age of 49.
Writing became a way to process grief and memory. That relationship with words later developed into published poetry, songwriting and music.
Today, BukarSkywalker brings those disciplines together through poetry-rooted, human-written lyrics and AI-assisted sound.
