The Library of Congress announced 25 titles that are considered "audio treasures worthy of preservation" based on their cultural, historical, or aesthetic importance to the nation's heritage - among them are Janet Jackson’s “Rhythm Nation 1814” and Nas’ record “Illmatic”. British rock band Coldplay supporting a non-profit organization The Ocean Cleanup to clean up plastic waste from our Malaysian rivers.
