YBN Almighty Jay's Rap-A-Lot chain is back in J. Prince's possession after making an open call to his New York folks.

YBN Almighty Jay was hospitalized earlier this month after getting viciously jumped in New York City. The rapper was robbed of his Rap-A-Lot chain which prompted J. Prince to make an open call to all his New York connections to help track down the perpetrators.

J. Prince has successfully obtained YBN Almighty Jay's Rap-A-Lot chain back. He took to Instagram to reveal the news while saluting French Montana and Hasan Harris, who was one the people who expressed his disappointment in J. Prince's initial post. 

"The homies from the Bronx, KT, @hocus45th and @frenchmontana kept it real with me and my son @jprincejr," Prince wrote on Instagram. "I welcome these brothers to our #MobTiesmovement and look forward to us doing business in the future together," he added. "To @ybnalmightyjay I’ll be returning your jewelry soon Lil homie."
