A chain is a unit of length; it measures 66 feet. The chain in wildland firefighting is used as the measure of the rate of spread in chains per hour.

"How much farther are we going?"

"About 4 chains." (264 ft.)

"The wildland fire is spreading at 40 chains an hour." (2640 ft. or 1/2 a mile in 1 hour)

A rapper's source of power. The sunlight to his birdman. Without a chain of platinum/gold/diamonds/bones, a rapper sloses his ability to drop tight flows over phat beats. The is an absolute necessity, and its importance should not be taken lightly.

Ludacris once said, "Some people ask why there's a skull on my chain, it's 'cause I LOVE gettin' head."
