"Welcome to Atlanta" is the second single from Jermaine Dupri's album Instructions and also appeared as a hidden track on Ludacris' second album, Word of Mouf as the last track on the album right after "Block Lockdown". The music video shows a tour bus being taken around Atlanta by the duo while they rap over it, with appearances by Lil Jon, Lil Bow Wow, Da Brat, Young Buck, T.I., Monica, Blaque, Usher, Brandi Williams, Evander Holyfield, Vernon Forrest, Dominique Wilkins and Big Tigger. It was directed by Marc Klasfeld. It samples Five Minutes Of Funk by Whodini & contains a dominant sample of Do it baby by The Miracles.

The official remix, "Welcome To Atlanta (Coast 2 Coast Remix)", features Murphy Lee, Snoop Dogg, Diddy and Ludacris on the intro and outro. Murphy Lee would collaborate with Dupri again in 2003 on "What Da Hook Gon Be?".

Filming Locations:

It starts with Jermaine Dupri coming out from the Dunk N Dine diner mixed with flashing pictures from the highway leading to Atlanta. He is seen wearing T-shirt a drawn face of Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes, which is an obvious tribute to her (deceased in April the same year). He is joined by fellow Atlantans including Lil Jon and Jazze Pha in the parking lot of the Magic City strip club. In the lyrics and some seconds-long camera shots he refers to hometown places Fuel, Kaya, Velvet Room, Club 112, Strokers club, Ritz club, Shark Bar, and Plush Limousine Service.
