As the Editor-in-Chief for ProRec, I get a lot of music-industry spam.  Most of it I disregard.  This is why:

Eco-tainer Alyssa Anjelica James put a fresh spin on the green movement with the release of her first full-length album entitled "within.” Tree-huggers and environment scoffers alike are impressed with her smooth style and soulful lyrics. More than just a performer with a cause, Alyssa has dedicated her support to numerous environmental causes including, “Tree-People,” and “Heart-Song.” As a pioneer of the “eco-tainment” movement, Alyssa hopes to use her talents and experience to entertain and inspire her audiences to “go green.”

Eco-tainment?

I am speechless.

As a civil engineer I receive tons of eco spam, such as: eco-bricks, eco-concrete, bio-insulation, bio-roofs, and other eco-bullshit stuff. Generally it consists of a normal material (used since a century) that gets a useless certificate of eco-conformity. This makes me laugh, but you would get impressed by how the end user is fascinated by this stupid things.

Did you actually listen to her music? Alyssa walks the talk unlike many other celebs who do "green" press just to be seen. Careful in choosing your works, and being so quick to judge someone you clearly don't know.

I don't know Anjelica. She may be a very fine person. I make no comments on her character. Her music I don't particularly care for. Her politics, less so. Her spam is annoying. "Eco-tainment" is just lame.

If someone sends me unsolicited email promoting their latest thing, and I think it's silly, then it's fair game.
