To display Monthly Audience your channel must meet requirements:
Your channel is an [Official Artist Channel](https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/7336634) (OAC).
Your channel has more than 100,000 subscribers.
Your channel’s Monthly Audience is over 50,000 listeners.
If your channel does not meet these requirements, it will continue to only display the Subscriber count.
