Dream is a super-popular YouTuber and streamer in the Minecraft community, racking up over 31 million YouTube subscribers and 6.4 million Twitch followers. Although Dream rose to fame thanks to his gaming content, he has also branched out into the music biz, releasing a handful of original songs and even an EP over the years. Now, he\u2019s going on tour across the United States alongside other creators like GeorgeNotFound to perform these songs for a live audience\u2026 and it doesn\u2019t look like listeners are very impressed. Dream dragged over acoustic singing amid autotune claims About a week before his first live performance, Dream uploaded a short video of himself singing without any backtrack or instruments on TikTok. The song Dream chose was his own track, \u2018Spotlight.\u2019 He prefaced the clip by saying he was comparing his \u2018no autotune\u2019 natural voice to the \u2018autotune\u2019 possibly used in his songs \u2014 or at least, the accusations that are going around online. It\u2019s a popular theory that Dream needs autotune in his songs to sound passable, and it looks like Dream\u2019s TikTok clip was in response to these claims. Unfortunately, viewers didn\u2019t take well to Dream\u2019s singing, despite the creator saying \u201cthis is my first time singing on TikTok, be nice.\u201d (Or maybe it was him kissing the camera at the very end, who knows.) \u201cYou said you would keep the mask ON! Not off.\u201d one user wrote. \u201cI\u2019m crying in a bad way,\u201d another said. \u201cWhy did I physically start crying? I feel violated bro,\u201d yet another commented. It\u2019s clear that Dream\u2019s singing didn\u2019t go over well in this clip, which is taking social media by storm even a couple weeks after being posted\u2026 but this is far from the first time his musical talents have caught flak from fans. The YouTuber got roasted after a clip from one of his concerts went viral on Twitter\/X as users absolutely wrecked him over his and GeorgeNotFound\u2019s \u201cawful\u201d performance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dream gets roasted for acoustic singing amid autotune accusations TikTok: dreamwastakenwastakenMinecraft star Dream is getting dragged online for showing off his singing skills amid accusations that the YouTuber relies heavily on autotune for his songs.
