Chem 4 is the Reunion Pheno, the seed that waited. It came out of the original Deer Creek stock years after Chem 91 and Chem Sis, popped when Chemdog and Joe Brand got the old crew back together in 2006, and Joe’s selection became the fourth pillar of the family.

It matters most as the mother of Stardawg, where JJ NYC put it over Tres Dawg, but it stands on its own: the loudest lime-and-fuel expression of the line, and the Chem that Greenpoint has folded back on itself for a decade.

Every cross below carries Chem 4.
