Can i monetize a parody on youtube

I mean I have heard people who do covers are able to Monetize. So why not a parody. You can always try.. Gabriel YouTube Addict. Parody is fair use and yes generally can be monetized.

Lilikoi Juice I do all my own graphics! If you watch Youtube's copyright content video certain cover parodies canNOT be monetized, that is, unless your partnership if you have one allows for it or you are a big Youtuber that gets to slide by the rules. According to those videos if you have the same lyrics it's copyright infringement. Seeing that your parody contains just a bit of original lyrics, I'd think it's fair to use but I'd double check.

If it's not it'll most likely just deny you for monetization. A trademark parody must convey two simultaneous and contradictory messages: that it is the original, but also that it is not the original and is instead a parody. While a parody must call to mind the actual product to be successful, the same success also necessarily distinguishes the parody from the original product.

Fair use is a defense to a claim of trademark infringement. The Act provides for a national system of trademark registration and protects the owner of a federally registered mark against the use of similar marks if such use is likely to result in consumer confusion, or if the dilution of a famous mark is likely to occur.

Generic terms, phrases, or the like. Vulgar or disparaging words or phrases. The new parody lyric was memorable while being educational, and also had the advantage of actually rhyming. After I put the lyric to paper, I realized that I wanted to share with a wider audience, but the lyric sat while I tried to find someone else to perform the music and make a video.
