More details to this question:
I am working on our Brand's strategy for social. Given a new partnership, we want to share some YouTube videos created by other users (random internet users, not brands). These videos are 'songs' from our new partner¿ the videos where *not* uploaded by the author and could potentially be copyright infringement. Would we be liable for re-posting this content, or is the uploaded liable?

No. That's a copyright violation. You need consent of the copyright owner.
