According to Eye, Radio was dumbfounded by the talent he showcased in the song.

"Radio telling me that Big Eye you are a talented singer; most people think these are not true stories. These are true stories. I don't think he could remember that it was me, who [sang] Indicator,” Eye said in a video seen by this reporter, adding that he met Radio on his return from the U.S. where he had gone to attend BET awards.

[In 2013, Goodlyfe was nominated by BET Music Awards under the Best International Act Africa category.]

"After releasing Indicator, they [Radio and Weasel] had just come from the U.S... and they came to Effendy's [Bar and Resturant]... he found me and asked me, Big Eye!... man, Big Eye, we sing, but you are exceptional... I don't know where it came from... But I will tell you, I think he was challenged by the idea that I came up with.”

In the video, Big Eye also noted that his other memorable event in the music industry was when the Bukedde newspaper wrote about him and the late AK47, born Emmanuel Mayanja.

He said what stood out for him was the headline saying that he and AK47 were set to replace Goodlyfe.

"The first time I was written about in newspapers, they were saying [AK47 and I] have come to replace Radio and Weasel... and I kept the newspaper cut that had that story... I couldn't believe I had been featured in Bukedde... It was me, AK47 and Showcase in the photo... then I was at university and I dropped out after that story,” he said.

AK47 died in 2015.
