Instructions (album)

Instructions is the second studio album by American rapper and producer Jermaine Dupri, released by So So Def Recordings and Columbia Records on October 30, 2001. The album debuted at number 15 on the Billboard 200 on November 17, 2001.

Blender editor Anthony Decurtis wrote: "An outstanding judge of talent, Dupri doesn’t get the difference between making hits and making statements. "Ballin’ Out of Control" (featuring the ubiquitous Nate Dogg) and "Get Some" (featuring Usher) sparkle like champagne bubbles. The rest falls as flat as an opened bottle of Cristal the morning after." Jason Birchmeier from AllMusic felt that "JD doesn't live up to his own hype on Instructions. His rhymes flow well but are overflowing with clichés and constant boasting. He's better at co-opting rhymes than coming up with his own [...] Like JD himself, Instructions seems to rely more on its surface gloss than its substance. Even so, there are several highlights, mostly courtesy of the guests."

Instructions debuted at number 15 on the US Billboard 200 on November 17, 2001.
