YouTube allows embedding of videos and sharing the link in any public platform (Facebook, Instagram, Reddit etc). What is the difference? Would I need to seek permission to post his video to a Facebook group? Essentially this is "resteeming" their content onto a social media platform.

The difference is that you cross post it onto another platform and the copyright holder has no control over the revenues generated. Even if Youtube allows embedding, that does not mean the 'emboddor' has full right to do whatever he wants with the embedded material. The original poster still has legal control over how the material is used.
I don't doubt your intentions to hand over the control of the steemaccount to the artist. That's not the point. And it is your own responsibility to check the legal consequences, or if there are any. That's not the point either (though I hope you have this thouroughly checked).
My point is: the artist should be asked beforehand. As artist ourselfes, we should respect the say other artists have in the use of their material.
