Rap-A-Lot boss J. Prince was not happy when NYC goons badly beat YBN Almighty Jay and took his Rap-A-Lot chain.
He made that clear in a controversial Instagram post in which he called out a slew Bronx rappers and asked them for help getting the chain back from Zae Numbafive and the Jack Boyz crew, who had stolen it and flaunted it.
In the end, the much-maligned strategy worked. In a new Instagram post, Prince flexed the returned chain.
Real recognizes real in every hood and has a way connecting in spite clowns and squares. –

Tho it was never about the chain, it was about the name that was built f blood sweat and tears. –

I welcome these brothers to our #MobTiesmovement and look forward to us doing business in the future together. –

There’s power in numbers and when strong brothers from the streets align themselves with one another, suckas tremble. So I can only imagine how some you are feeling right now! –

I’ve invited these homies to #htown for @jprincejr birthday celebration March 28-31, 2019 and I look forward to coming to the Bronx soon. –
It turns out Zae Numbafive and four other Jack Boyz were picked up last week by the Feds on unrelated charges. It's unclear if that had anything to do with the chain making its way back into Prince's hands.
