When you upload your video with audiofire music on YouTube, the platform automatically detects the use of the music. You will then see the message:

"Copyright: Copyrighted content found. The use is permitted by the copyright owner on YouTube."

This has no negative impact on your channel and is neither a Copyright Strike nor a warning. Your video is legally protected. However, monetization through advertising revenue is not possible.
