I recently got demonitised for having reused content on my YouTube channel. I understand why the content was deemed 'reused' as it didn't have any voiceovers. I have 30 or so of these videos which are considered 'Reused' and are bringing in 1 million views per month. If I were to upload the next 15-20 videos with narration will I get approved? Or must I delete the 'reused content' If I am to have any chance of being approved?

how many video strikes do you have?
First, you get strikes and warnings.

You can reupload and retry...But better option would be to create a new channel

you need to remove the reused contents and add new contents with voice overs before you resubmit. however try to divert traffic to your new videos with end screens, pinned comment, description etc. And delete reused contents only before resubmitting

Thanks for the tip about the endcards I didn't think about that. YouTube is confusing sometimes because certain channels can get approved with reused content. I guess it depends on the reviewer.

Without deleting the re-used content, I doubt YT would approve for monetization again

Yep. Been through it before. Reason why I left in 2018, my videos actually had my commentary tho. Their algorithm was dumb asf back then idk if it got better but you would definitely have to delete some videos. For me I deleted the couple of videos that barely had views on my channel, and got reapproved eventually.
