DICLAIMER: This can vary a lot.
Music Plays
YouTube Music subscriptions pay around 30% less than a Spotify play, but it depends on where the subscription is based. For example a subscription in the US pays more than a subscription in Guatemala.
YouTube ad supported plays are lower but vary a lot depending on the ad type and duration the ad is watched. For some regions of the world the value can be incredible low, less than $0.0001. They will be shown in your statements if you want to check each play.
Your own YouTube content
If you have a monetized channel you can earn directly from your own content. It depends on the length of the video, the type of ad, where it was shown, and various other factors like how popular the video is. It’s usually not very much for music.
If you expect around $1.60 - $6 per 1,000 plays where the ad is watched you won’t be disappointed. However, if you produce something popular or longer those numbers can go up.
If you are using music that you have released you will see a copyright claim on your video. This isn't a copyright strike, it just means that your distributor is collecting the money on your behalf.
