"Sponsored recommendations": I pay for Spotify Premium, and yet somehow I'm still the product?

I opened Spotify this morning to be greeted by a modal popup with a "sponsored recommendation".
Why am I seeing ads if I'm already paying for the premium plan!? 😑

But that's not what this is. This is just an ad. Not a "since you like X, try Y"
If there is any company that can do personalized ads for music then it is Spotify. It's what they are best at, why would they skip that opportunity?
