NBA YoungBoy, whose real name is Kentrell Gaulden, has made headlines once again as he adjusts to life outside of prison. After nearly a year behind bars, YoungBoy has settled back into his luxurious mansion in Utah, but not without stirring up a whirlwind of discussions surrounding his return.
Local news outlet KUTV reports that the rapper has fortified his residence with a substantial presence of armed security personnel, raising eyebrows in the quiet neighborhood. The mansion is now encircled by guards clad in black attire and ski masks, a move that has not gone unnoticed by nearby residents.
One neighbor shared her unsettling encounter with the security team, recounting, “I was approached by two individuals in bulletproof vests. They were dressed all in black, and one of them had an AK-47 slung across his chest. It certainly creates an atmosphere of anxiety.” Despite the tension, she expressed her intention to welcome YoungBoy back with a batch of homemade cookies, recalling a friendly exchange they had previously, even amidst a troubling incident involving their dogs. “He’s just a young guy who was really kind to me; he called me ‘ma’am,’” she reflected.
Cleared for security, YoungBoy eyes comeback under curfew
Authorities have confirmed that the security detail is operating with the necessary permits for the protection of the property, validating YoungBoy’s choice to prioritize safety in the wake of his release.
YoungBoy, who was released last month after pleading guilty to multiple charges, including identity fraud and forgery, has avoided additional prison time. His prior conviction related to gun possession led to a 27-month sentence, which he served before facing these new allegations. He was initially scheduled for release in July but was granted an earlier exit, the reasons for which have not been disclosed.
As part of his release conditions, YoungBoy is subject to a 30-day curfew, requiring him to remain at his residence. However, sources indicate that he is already laying the groundwork for an extensive tour, signaling his determination to re-establish his presence in the music industry.
