I'm so over this type of release. It's all marketing and effects.

Calling a Kendrick release 'all marketing' is a bad take

this album is literally released under the marketing firm he co-founded

Sure. Marketing is a big part of the music industry. They're all capitalists. But I don't think pop culture should just entirely be written off like that.

There was marketing for this? I haven't paid attention, so it caught me by surprise

It was a complete surprise release. I saw some articles say that even the label didn't know about the album until it was released.
