In an interview with a local news outlet, YoungBoy Never Broke Again's neighbor in Utah said she hopes to bake cookies to celebrate the rapper's return from incarceration.

As reported by KUTV, neighbor Judy Zone spoke about living near YoungBoy and revealed what she thinks of him. She mentioned that she's been to his house "a lot," and she was surprised by his sudden return. "I didn't know he was back, you know?" she said. "I didn't know that Kentrell [YoungBoy's real name] is back, so I think I'm going to bake him some cookies and bring them over there."

Asked if she thinks he's a "nice guy," she replied, "He's a very sweet kid, I mean he's very young. ... Very kind, he called me ma'am. I told him I've never listened to his music, he said, 'I don't recommend it.' He said, 'Ma'am, I don't recommend it.'" She spoke with him after an incident last year in which one of his dogs attacked her dog.

Last month, YoungBoy Never Broke Again was moved from a federal prison in Alabama to a residential reentry management facility in Phoenix, Arizona. He's since been released from the facility and has returned to his home in the Olympus Cove neighborhood in Utah. Other neighbors, such as Suman Singh said they saw him return with armed guards and "four or five police cars."

YoungBoy was serving time in prison on a federal gun charge, for which he was sentenced to 23 months. After accepting a plea deal, he was awarded credit for time served and was released earlier than initially planned.
