Telicatessen

Telicatessen is the debut solo album by American hip hop artist and former Sonic Sum member Rob Sonic, released by the Definitive Jux label on September 7, 2004. An instrumental version of the album was released the following year, also by Definitive Jux. The album’s title is a portmanteau word combining the terms “television” and “delicatessen”.

All production, lyrics and vocals were by Rob Sonic, with the exception of the verses on “Sniper Picnic” by fellow New York MC Creature and Alaska and Windnbreeze from Definitive Jux labelmates Hangar 18 and backing vocals by M. Sayyid of the group Antipop Consortium. Scratches were performed by Fred Ones from Sonic’s former group the Sonic Sum, and by DJ Big Wiz.
