In addition to the "Made with iPad" branding in the clip, Apple is also promoting the new music video in the Browse tab on Apple Music.

This isn't the first time Apple has partnered with an artist to promote its products. Back in 2019, it teamed up with Selena Gomez on a music video that was shot on iPhone. The video for Lady Gaga's 2020 single "Stupid Love" was also shot on iPhone.

Interscope Records, which represents Rodrigo, Gomez, and Lady Gaga, also produced Billie Eilish documentary "The World's a Little Blurry" earlier in 2021.

And I'm so tired that I might
Quit my job, start a new life
And they'd all be so disappointed
'Cause who am I, if not exploited

Ah, pop music. Catchy hook though.

That’s actually pretty good, although for particular masks in the clip, the old adage “less is more” might work better.
