Watch US news anchor rap some Snoop Dog

Brian Williams, one of America's most recognisable news faces, loosened the tie last night to rap a few beats.

Kind of.

Williams is the anchor on NBC Nightly News, and has been since 2004. He's the Brian Dobson the east coast. Which makes this brilliant video all the better.

Editors at The Tonight Show trawled through years of clips to bring us this rendition of Snoop Doggy Dogg's "Gin and Juice".

Yep - one of America's most respected journalists, "with my mind on my money and my money on my mind."

Check out the original song here for comparison.

It's not the first time Fallon's editors have knocked this out of the park; they previosuly made Williams get his groove on to The Sugar Hill Gang track "Rapper's Delight" - you know, I said a hip, hop, the hippie the hippie to the hip hip hop, you dont stop…

Give that editor a raise, good man.
