Nigerian highlife fusion band The Cavemen have joined forces with British rapper Pa Salieu for a surprise new single titled “Gatekeepers.” The cross-genre collaboration, which blends The Cavemen’s vintage highlife sound with Pa Salieu’s raw, alternative grime, was released on Friday, October 24, 2025, to widespread acclaim.
In addition, The Cavemen, known for their smooth melodies and timeless highlife arrangements, provide a rich, soulful foundation.
This is expertly contrasted by Pa Salieu’s distinct vocal delivery and lyrical dexterity, which offer a gritty and modern perspective on social commentary.
“Gatekeepers” is an introspective and politically charged track, a departure from some of The Cavemen’s more celebratory music.
Finally, the song’s lyrics confront institutional barriers and societal challenges, exploring themes of power and resistance that resonate with both artists’ lived experiences.
