If I remember right, people who had YouTube premium got grandfathered in at a lower price, but that lower price didn't last forever and recently went up.

However people who signed up early for play music all access were told they would get an $8 a month price for signing up early, and that price has persisted until now through all the other price hikes and the change to YT Music.

I signed up for Google play music/YouTube red I believe in 2015 when I got my nexus 6P. It was 10 a month then and I've been grandfathered till now. When the prices went up last summer, I was told I had another 6 months or so to keep my grandfathered price before mine would go up as well. Did the OG 8 dollar users not get that email?

No, never got an email like that. I signed up in 2013 I think, when Play Music All Access was announced.
