Will this get me in trouble?

I work in promotion of a group of various artists, singers, comedians and vloggers.

I would like to connect them all under the banner of my business name and make new channels where each artist would have a channel with their name and then my business name at the end. The channels would then look like an artist with a Vevo channel. Channel names would look like Mike Smith GARMIN or Endo the Clown GARMIN.
I would run the channels and any revenue would all be sent to our adsense account to be divided with the artists. So all the channels would be under one adsense account.

Would youtube have a problem with this and should I run it all as one channel and have all of my artists on one channel that is my channel. If I do that then I guess that videos with lower views would still be added into our total and I could pay artists some revenue when their individual channels would not have payed them.
What would you do? Is there a way I would end up in trouble with youtube using either of these set ups? I'm wondering if youtube would consider that I'm trying to be a Partner Network by setting up channels like my first suggestion which is what we actually want to.

I put this question in this thread because I thought it came under legal advice. If the mods feel it should be under partners or somewhere else please feel free to move it, if you can, or let me know and I will repost it where you advise me to.
Thanks for any advice.

Setting up different channels for your artists is not an issue for YouTube. This doesn't violate any rules I know of.
