Amherst teen rapper Colby and vocalist Leanna Troup cover ‘Lights’ - VIDEO

Colby, a talented young rapper, and female vocalist Leanna Troup have a lot of growing up to do. That's not meant as an insult or a dig -- it's the truth. They're both Western New York high school students.

Impressive, then, that their video for their chopped-up hip-hop cover of Ellie Goulding's "Lights" -- shot with Austin Martinelli Productions out of Amherst, another venture helmed by a young person who won't be able to legally vote until 2016 -- has collected nearly 11,000 views after just one week on YouTube. Another Colby / Leanna collaboration, "Fall For Your Type," has over 6,500 views. We're going to keep our eyes on the musical progress of these two kids.

TAGGED: colby, ellie+goulding, hip-hop, leanna+troup, lights, youtube
