- I sat down with Dream for one of his first interviews without his mask. We talked about his face reveal, how he grew to 30 million subscribers faster than MrBeast, rejecting $550,000, and whether he's risking it all by going into music.

Oh wow I loved the interview style. Super genuine and I was very absorbed the whole time
thank you! Credit to Dream for being so open and candid
Jesus loves you all and He died to save you all from your sins. Jesus is the Son of God and also part of God, in the Trinity. Jesus, while remaining fully God, became fully man at the same time and died to save us from our sins. God the Father physically raised Him from the dead, and Jesus is now in Heaven, interceding for those He saves. Shortly before Jesus died, He experienced separation from God the Father for the first time in all eternity. We have all sinned, but Jesus paid the price for all of the sins we have made and will make, so if we believe in Him, and trust in your heart that Jesus is Lord, and believe that God raised Him from the dead, we will be saved from a place where the unbeliever will suffer in awful pain and darkness by themself forever after they pass away. We can go to Heaven when we pass away, and live with Jesus the Christ and other believers in joy and happiness. Those who come to Christ (before the time when God takes all the believers to heaven before the Tribulation begins, we call this event “The Rapture”) will also rule and reign with Him on Earth for 1,000 years. Also, you can never lose your salvation when you truly have it. Once you become a Christian, you should start reading the Bible, God’s holy word, and find a good church that teaches what lines up with the Bible, and start going to that Church regularly to find out what to do next. If anyone has any questions, please reply to this. Thanks for reading, God bless.
What's the audio name on the intro?@@youshaei
Lots of people I've spoken to said that it was a mistake in Dream taking his mask off. People like mystery and a character but I dunno, I think we are entering a new age of authenticity on TH-cam so for the viewers he lost, he will gain a tonne more who will love him for being himself. That's what's gonna win TH-cam for the next few years.
Well said 👏 but I think a little mystery and intrigue always help
But he wanted to be able to live his life and travel and be with his friends not spend his life in hiding. Not everything needs to be a career decision.
idk man I like his face🤷♀️
@@Megan-ts7rvfact 👍
@@starry505Same
I’ve got a lot of respect for Dream. He gets a shit ton of weird negativity that I think is spurred from jealousy/general internet weirdness, but he continues to be genuine and do what’s best for him personally. Idk, I think the majority of people would crumble under the shit he gets.
I couldn't agree more
i agree! you have summed it up perfectly
he’s a predator
@@lol.6610 The girl lied, she said she would provided evidence then disappeared for a year, and was seen on tiktok bragging about how he supposedly found her "gorgeous".
@@lol.6610 Do 10 minutes of research, like I did a couple weeks ago when I saw a tweet saying this about him, and you’ll find a significant amount very much telling you that that is not true. I would not comment praise for somebody I thought even possibly was such a thing. How you have the time to find this video, find this comment and type out such awful misinformation, but not do any actual digging yourself on such a serious accusation, is beyond me.
Always love interviewers and creators giving dream the space to be heard and understood 🙌
He's awesome, so glad I got to chat with him
I really like your interview style, you gave him a lot of time to expand on his answers and kept asking interesting and engaging questions.
That means a lot 🙏 I always try to make my guests comfortable to expand on their answers
dream is such an expressive speaker he is fun to listen to. this interview was nice and respectful too
he is truly such an amazing, genuine, creative beautiful person.
Agreed 🙏🙏
thank you for doing this interview, it's always nice when dream is given the space to talk and be heard
i feel like these types of interviews help humanize dream and help show who he truly is
I agree! That's always my goal :)
i love the fact that you gave him time to answer and had such great questions, i appreciate it so much, he is such a kind soul thank you for having him, keep it up
Of course, and thank your for watching 🙏
i love this interview so much, as a huge dream fan its awesome to see him answer questions from other people :]
Means a lot from such a huge fan 🙏
thank you for interviewing him and asking good questions!!
Thank you! I put lots of time into prepping so that means a lot
Thank you for doing this video and give dream the opportunity to talk and express himself freely! Really good interview. 💚
Of course! Thanks so much for the kind words and for watching :)
I seriously can't believe that people consider Dream bad looking. What chance do regular people have when he doesn't get one?
They just think he is lame tbh
he looks so much better with a beard (some people just do) when he first revealed he had kind of a baby face and thelighting was bad so im sure people were just rude like that for no reason. he looks great in this lighting, smiling, the beard, the fit looks awesome!
Damn you’ve been having awesome interviews!
🙏🙏
I've been a fan of Dream since 2020 and it's so nice hearing him have a space to talk and rant on freely, thanks for this interview it was really genuine and nice ❤
He's so genuine
I like the fact that you didn't interrupt him and giving him space to expand his answers. And your engaging questions too! Cool bruv!
Of course! Thanks for watching :)
this was such a nice conversation to listening too. and i love to hear dreams thoughts, so thank you for just letting him ramble at times. i am looking forward to the stuff thats to come!
Appreciate you saying that!
Dream is my favorite cc; his content is so engaging & compelling. I love his music as well.
I’ve been following him for 2.5 years. He’s the smartest person I’ve ever met and it’s exciting to wait and see what’s next.
Fun interview - thank you!
This interview was done so wonderfully, thank you for asking such great questions & for giving him a space to talk in such a genuine manner! ♡
Thank you so much for watching!
The two reasons I dislike Dream is he handles his admittedly young audience very oddly and asks questions as if they're adults. The other reason is that he handles criticism and his social media account horribly, responding too things he really doesn’t need too or saying way too much about his personal life that will just get used against him later.
really good interview!! I love dream this is great
Thank you so much!!
I really like how you are respectful and actually listen :)
I appreciate that, I try :)
@@youshaei :))
You're a great interviewer!! Dream is such an interesting guy
I appreciate that!! and agreed :)
Loved the interview brother 🤝📈
Thank you 🙏
i loved this interview so much, dream is such a genuine, interesting person
he is actually quite the storyteller, just as he claims to be, he managed to keep me all ears for 40 minutes :)
Agreed! He's incredibly well spoken
Agreed!
I love listening to Dream talk
Jon you're killing it brother, I always learn so much from your videos. Keep it up man!
Appreciate you man! 🙏
Thank you sm for this interview!! You did really well, i loved the questions sm, and its cool to hear more from Dream !
I really appreciate that!!
major respect for Dream, man doesn't deserve the amount of hate he gets. very cool to see how humble he continues to be all this time.
I loved this interview. As someone that has followed dreams career for many years hearing him talk about his thought process and ideas behind Some of his projects were really interesting and things that I have not heard before. I also love your interview style as it’s very calm. Cool And more of a conversation than just a question and answer typical interview.
This is so inspiring
HES SO FINE
Omg thanks for bringing Dream to the interview!! ❤
So glad he took the time to chat with me🙏
I feel bad for him about staying inside for so long. I wouldn't want to be restricted to my house for such a long time.
I love dream sm so thank you for doing this interview with him!
Thanks for watching!
You are such a good interviewer this video is so calming cause your and Dream's voice are so calm
Dream is really an inspiration to me and I appreciate you so much for listening to him. Thank you!
Thank you for this interview, you did a great job! Thank you for giving us the opportunity to hear Dream speak about all these interesting topics, really appreciate it!
Love hearing interviews with Dream he’s such an interesting content creator to who has so much love for creating and making stuff the best possible. His stories are always lovely and entertaining to learn about
Great interview! Loved your questions and you clearly did research coming into this. And I love how you gave Dream the space to talk freely
I love him! I’m so glad I found this interview I’ve always thought he was such a genuine and kind person. It’s unfortunate how much hate he gets for just existing.
Fr! Exactly my thoughts
Im so proud of him he very beautiful as well.
Watching rn! So far great interview♥️ thank you for giving him a space to talk to, and great questions!
Thank you Linda! That means a lot :)
Thank you for the interview!

Have a great day! :)
Thanks for commenting and watching!

I'm so proud of Dream
DREAM❤
This was an awesome interview, super incitful!
Thanks so much Olivia!
Great see another creator with a mask succeed! 🤘
Thank u for being nice to Dream!
Always!
You're a really good interviewer your question were interesting and engaging and you really took the time to let dream respond to your questions in depth. I really like him bc you can tell he's genuine kind hearted and passionate, this interview don't fail to show how nice of a person dream is :)
Thanks Marine, that means a lot 🙏
@@youshaei ty for interviewing him
OMG EXCITED TO WATCH THIS!!
Let me know when you do!!
Another honest informative video that I always look forward to. ❤️
Thank You for the interview
Dedication! So impressive
Have always loved long formatted interviews with genuine and interesting questions pertaining to the person being interviewed and dream is the most genuine and kind hearted individual to have on and just the most passionate when it comes to content creation as well. truly props to you for doing the research for this interview, really loved the editing, thank you for having him on and giving him the space to talk! :)
Dude stammers a Lot which I find so relatable since I’m highly a introvert ,good video👍!
But for him it comes more of being neurodivergent. He has ADHD
Also thank you for asking him to take off the mask lol we've been BEGGING 🙏
i love how quickly he talks it feels like pebbles rolling down a hill in my brain
What an amazing interview! Dream is such a wonderful, creative mastermind and I really loved how you facilitated the conversations with him
such an interesting video, love hearing more about him
Dreamie 😍
I love the way this interview is formatted. The questions you ask are so great, and you can definitely tell you did your research. That's always very appreciated as a fan! Haha. And it was cool how it flowed, you seemed to catch every word he said even when he rambled a bit. Awesome video. :]
Thank you so much!
Absolutely loved the interview! Thank you for asking such great questions, you clearly did a lot of research and your respect came through. I'm always so inspired by Dream, his mindset on everything is so creative and refreshing, whether it's content creation, fandoms, or temperature 😆 Would love to see a part 2 of the interview if you get the chance in a few months
so interesting and the way the interview goes feels more like a conversation and makes it even more fun to watch!!
That's always my goal!
Thank you so much for doing such a wonderful job at interviewing him! ❤ Dream is such a real dude, like just listening to him talk is a wonderful look into his thought process. It's so clear that he really loves doing this. I've seen so many great youtubers become money hungry or even resentful of their fame or their fall from fame and its heartbreaking everytime. Dream, on the other hand, gained so much fame so fast but instead of turning into an asshole money obsessed clout chaser he grew from a hotheaded young man into a mature and pretty genuine adult that shows more and more character growth everytime you see him.
His mental strength is also really impressive, the amount of hate he gets on a regular basis would have driven anyone insane or close to a mental break, which has sadly happened to other youtubers before and those ones got way less hate than Dream. I will also never understand the "ugly" comments, I searched up more about him and saw more and more photos of him and the dude is not ugly at all, hell, in some photos he looks downright handsome. I think instagram and photoshop/filters have warped all of our expectations on how people should look, because if Dream is considered ugly now, soon we all will flinch from our own reflections in the mirror and start wearing paper bags on our heads.
Can only wish Dream the best of luck in his career and that he never stops being a genuine storyteller ❤
Such a thoughtful comment and I agree! Thanks for watching :)
i really enjoy how genuine dream is, and how he always puts his heart and soul above making money
you're a fantastic interviewer. i love that you give them so much space to talk and take the question whichever avenue they want :]
That means a lot to me :) You made my day!
only 71 thousand veiws?! guys this is DREAM!!
Yeah exactly this isn't enough views for such a well made video, don't know what's wrong with the algorithm
@@BlazeOfKakarot It's difficult to get people to watch the whole video on a 40 minute video. That's probably why.
@@yougoslavia there are some other interviews which have millions of views yet are hours long, like Andrew Tate and George janko which has 12 million views or Elon musk interview, even with mrbeast, he had an hour long interview and it has millons of views, for some reason the algorithm didn't push this one far enough
@@BlazeOfKakarot If this had been uploaded back in 2020 or 2021, it would probably have a lot more views but people are less interested in Dream now which is also a factor.
Dream❤
Thank you for this interview! I really like how you gave Dream the opportunity to talk and discuss things as much as he would be comfortable and as much as he would like. And thank you for the atmosphere you create in your interviews it's really nice to watch and even knowing the answers to the questions it's interesting to rewatch it again :)
So glad to hear this! That's always my goal :)
Love the comments on here, so positive, its a real breath of fresh air.
I agree!
Was this filmed the same day he went live talking about the tour
i thinks so
DREAMMMMMMM
really awesome interview, i loved it and was captivated the whole time! you're a great interviewer and picked lots of interesting questions to ask and also bounced off dream's answers well. also really admire the research you put into this video and the editing, things like statistics you pulled for say, foolish's sub count before and after joining the dsmp and how many people were actively playing minecraft when dream was doing manhunt. you gave dream a really good space to express himself and his thoughts and you were a natural interviewer :)
Wow thank you for picking up on all of these details! We put lots of time into research and editing so this means a lot 🙏
Such an interesting interview!
Thank you so much 🙏
This was really fun too watch 💚💚
That means a lot, thank you 🙏
This is a nice interview thank you ❤
Thanks for watching!
this was super interesting! such a chill and genuine interview I love this style and the fact you kept the conversation engaging . super cool !
Glad you enjoyed it!
wow i only heard about this now through tumblr and i never saw this on my recommended page thats so weird
Amazing interview!
Appreciate you!
This interview is beautiful. Thank you for being so understanding and kind. Dream is truly a nice person❤
He really is :)
He did so much for other people and they still hate on him. He deserves the world
Wonderful interview! I really like this shift from people who used to interview dream with intention to harm him to people who genuinely find things he's done fascinating and worth learning about 💚
Thank you so much, loved the video
Of course!
DREAM!
Great interview❤
*why do you only have 400k subs, you deserve millions!* Your such a great interviewer, your style of interviewing is incredible 👍🏼
Thank you! We're getting there :)
I will say, Until I End Up Dead is Dream's best song. easy. It's clean and it's got a good beat
he’s so hot
I don't mean this in a strange way at all but how can people call him ugly?? And I've also seen people say he's average but personally, I think he looks great?- :')
Dream is wearing XXXtentacion jacket 🥺 W!
LETS GO NEW CONTENT
🚀🚀🚀
i love hearing him just ramble thanks for this!
wow i love the editing in the intro! thanks for having dream 💚
Thank you, I'll let our editors know :)
As someone who`s been a fan of both Dream and the dream smp since 2020, i love this interview. Imo its probably the best interview ive seen with Dream. You`re editing style is super good! Keep up the good work!! And you just earned a new sub
That means so much!
@@youshaei ♥
I loved how he put a few of his song names in his sentences!! He had come super far and I love learning more about him❤❤❤
I love how he was so in depth with the questions. Almost like looking through an animation. I also love how he sees things and the future! I can’t wait to see what gonna happen next!
Thank you for the interview! It's fun listening to Dream speak on topics he is passionate about. What I love most is that he mentioned using his platform/name to promote others. It's so very true. I was introduced to many amazing creators thanks to his appearances on their streams while they played on the DSMP. He knows how to spot talented individuals!
Glad you enjoyed it! And yes agreed :)
This was such a good interview and he's voice is so calming.
