KEEMSTAR and Banks Hit Out at YouTube for Ruining $10,000 \u2018Mom\u2019s Basement\u2019 Episode YouTubers Daniel \u2018KEEMSTAR\u2019 Keem and Ricky \u2018Banks\u2019 Banks have expressed their disappointment and frustration with YouTube after the latest episode of the pair\u2019s \u201cMom\u2019s Basement\u201d talk show was demonetized. This has not only resulted in both content creators not making money from the video, but that it has under-performed due to not being promoted the way a regular monetized video would. Mom\u2019s Basement was created by KEEMSTAR and Banks as a way of bringing the classic, television style talk show to YouTube, something which the video-sharing website highly encourages. With guests including Twitch streamer \u2018Ninja,\u2019 the show has proven to be quite successful, with its episodes averaging over 2.7 million views. However, their latest episode, which features popular YouTuber Shane Dawson, has fallen victim to YouTube\u2019s demonetization. According to KEEMSTAR, a single episode can cost upwards of $10,000 to shoot and produce, and this ordeal could result in a heavy loss of investment. What happened with Moms Basement!

I hate YouTube with a passion and I’m ready to never post a video there ever again. Let me know what’s up. \u2014 FaZe Banks (@Banks) July 26, 2018 It remains to be seen whether YouTube will work with KEEM and Banks to rectify the situation, and if not, it will be worth monitoring to see if the pair are willing to move their prized show elsewhere. \u2013 You can watch the latest episode of Mom\u2019s Basement with Shane Dawson below:<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
