YOUR FAVORITE MTV SHOWS ARE ON PARAMOUNT+

New Releases: D12, Loretta Lynn, 'American Idol,' Turk, Black Sabbath & More

The Motor City heats up this week with two big releases. D12 welcome you to D12 World, that magical place where "U R the One," the "40 Oz." never stops flowing, and Eminem appears on the lead single, "My Band." Meanwhile, Detroit native Jack White produces Loretta Lynn's Van Lear Rose and also joins her on a few tracks.

Patti Smith spends this week Trampin' around, while Diana Krall's The Girl in the Other Room finds her covering Tom Waits' "Temptation," Joni Mitchell's "Black Crow," and husband Elvis Costello's "Almost Blue." On the rest of the album, Krall and Costello collaborate on new material.

"American Idol" Season 3: Greatest Soul Classics features the top 12 finalists all souled out on songs like "Chain of Fools" (Fantasia Barrino), "I Heard It Through the Grapevine" (Diana Degarmo), and "(Sittin' on) The Dock of the Bay" (Matt Rogers).

Motörhead, Helmet, Twisted Sister, Whitesnake and Poison are among the bands that play Spin the Bottle on A Tribute to Kiss. Sharing shelf space are Hot Boys rapper Turk's Penitentiary Chances and Joey McIntyre's 8:09.

Finally, a small black box is the star archival release of the week -- but it's not just any black box. Black Sabbath's Black Box: The Complete Original Black Sabbath 1970-1978 contains the group's eight studio albums -- arguably the "big bang" of heavy metal -- with all their original cover artwork. Also included are a three-song DVD of a 1970 TV performance and an 80-page booklet (with a velvet cover) containing photos, liner notes, lyrics and a band history.
