Friday Tha Jynx is the alter ego of Canadian lyricist Sheldon Nicodemus. Born from Indigenous roots, autistic perspective, and bipolar intensity, Jynx turns life’s darkest moments into poetic war cries. From residential struggles in Dawson Creek to the studio mic, he’s building a new legacy in underground hip hop.

Sunny Side Album Review - Friday Tha Jynx (1)
Genre: Hip-Hop / Conscious Rap / Underground
Length: 13 tracks | Label: 4614624 Records DK | Release Date: July 17, 2025
On his fourth studio album, Sunny Side, Canadian rapper Friday Tha Jynx (aka Sheldon Nicodemus) steps fully into the role of poet laureate of pain and perseverance. This isn't just a rap album — it's a memoir in motion, bouncing between trauma and triumph, delivered with defiant wit and bulletproof flow. With production support from Just Dan, the album blends soulful textures, dusty drums, and minimalist backdrops that give Friday's words all the room they need to land. Whether he's unpacking addiction, memory, recovery, or cultural disillusionment, he does so with lyrical agility and bruising honesty. This is grit without gimmicks, and it might be his most complete artistic statement yet.
| Sunny Side | A raw opener — not a celebration, but a survival chant. Defiant and poetic. |
|---|---|
| Declaration | Blistering and venomous. A manifesto and a warning shot. |
| Looking Back | Brutally honest about trauma and survival. Heavy replay value. |
| Better Call Saul | Packed with pop culture, wit, and wounded pride. Funny, furious, and clever. |
| Life Imitates Art | Philosophical and vulnerable. Spiraling meditation on addiction and time. |
| Small Town Poetry | Slam poetry meets rural gospel. Reflective and uniquely styled. |
| Skeleton Crew | Chaotic, grimy, and self-aware. Underground anthem energy. |
| Mistaken | Weird and witty. Confessional and confident in equal measure. |
| Ten Toes Down | Survival anthem for cold streets. Northern pride with sharp bars. |
| SayLess | Quietly one of the deepest cuts. A critique of rap and a reflection of self. |
| Redemption Hymn | The spiritual peak. Street psalm for the voiceless. |
| God Complex | Sharp, sarcastic, and cold-blooded. A villain origin and ego purge. |
| Play It Again | Brilliant closer. Anthemic, repeatable, and brutally self-aware. |
Sunny Side is more than a collection of songs — it's a survival diary disguised as a mixtape, a therapy session wrapped in speaker-shaking bars. Friday Tha Jynx uses humor, horror, and hard-won wisdom to deliver something uniquely powerful. There's no filler, no fake flexes, no label polish. Just pain, growth, and bars that bleed truth. It's an album for the hurt but hopeful, the underground heads, the ones trying to get clean, the ones who never gave up — even when they wanted to.
