Every town has its urban legend and folktale. In Trenton, NJ, the tale is in regard to a particular cab service. When you step in, you're taken where you need to be.

For Charles, he never understood the concept, it sounds like every other cab service. He was more focused on his band to care. However, one day he saw and witnessed what the mysterious taxi did to his supposed band friends after what was supposed to be their first showing. They went from working 9 to 5 to being famous musicians after the cab took them to a local studio. Charles was defeated after this and gave up music.

One day after work, he hopes into a cab to take home, but it doesn't take him home, it takes him to a studio.All Rights Reserved
