US RAPPER Snoop Dogg shocked local Welsh farmer by praising his recent crop, which included a 40kg swede, in a video message.
In a short clip, posted on the popular video site YouTube, the American rapper, who is a cannabis enthusiast, pays tributes to Ian Neale and invites him to his upcoming show in Cardiff so the two can discuss farming methods.
"Man, I want to tell you something, when I do my show in Cardiff, I want you to come backstage and see me because I do vegetation myself and I want to know your secret," the rapper says in the video.
"So Ian Neale... come see your boy Snoop Dogg, I've got two tickets for you when I get to town. Ya dig?," he adds.
The farmer, who has been cultivating oversized vegetables for 30 years, said he is taking the Doggystyle rapper up on his offer and plans on attending the concert this Saturday (Oct 8).
