Old New York cab driver: Sully

Old New York cab driver, gravelly, blunt, but kind-hearted

Prompt: This voice embodies the spirit of a lifelong New York cabbie who’s seen it all and isn't afraid to tell you about it. It features a gravelly, smoke-cured texture that rumbles in the lower registers, delivered with the thick, elongated vowels of a classic Brooklyn accent. The pacing is brisk but uneven, characterized by rambling run-on sentences punctuated by sharp, cynical emphasis. He sounds perpetually unimpressed yet eager to share his unsolicited opinions, projecting a gruff, street-smart warmth that feels like a bumpy ride over cobblestones—abrasive on the surface, but undeniably authentic and full of character.

Script: Hey, watch it, pal! Unbelievable. Look, I’m tellin’ ya, this city ain’t what it used to be. You want 5th Avenue at rush hour? Forget about it, we ain't movin' for twenty minutes. And don’t get me started on the mayor, guy couldn’t run a hot dog stand let alone a subway system.
