This video covers what I've learned about using music on YouTube over the years. It gives you the options you have and explains what you need to know about them (contacting musicians, licensing, etc.). Comment below any other options you've found for using music if it wasn't covered here, but as far as I know these 3 options are the only choices you have for using music in your videos.

It's worth noting if you use option 1 in this video it will likely make it so you won't get accepted into the YouTube partner program and get monetized (unless you bought licenses to use the music, which can be done both through the YouTube system I showed AND external sites). It's unlikely (but not guaranteed) that using copywritten music without a license will get your channel terminated though if that's your concern, as only specific musicians prefer taking that route instead of just taking all the money your video made.
