Worth It

"Worth It" is a song by American girl group Fifth Harmony, featuring American rapper Kid Ink. The song impacted American rhythmic crossover radio on March 2, 2015, as the third and final single from the group's first studio album, Reflection (2015). Written by Priscilla Renea and its producers Stargate, "Worth It" is a dance-pop and R&B song that incorporates a strong use of Balkan music and Middle Eastern music in its production, the trademark of its producer and songwriter, Ori Kaplan. The lyrics discuss themes of feminism, self-worth and confidence, and include double entendres. The song became a sleeper hit on the US Billboard Hot 100 where it peaked at number 12, marking the group's highest-charting single at the time and the first top 20 single by a girl group in the US since "Jai Ho! (You Are My Destiny)" by The Pussycat Dolls in 2009. It reached number one in Israel and Lebanon and number three on the UK Singles Chart. It was the fourth-bestselling song of 2015 in Israel. It is certified Quadruple Platinum in the US and Gold or higher in eleven additional countries. Directed by Cameron Duddy, the music video has themes of female empowerment with Fifth Harmony dominating men as business executives. It has received over two billion views on YouTube. The group promoted "Worth It" with several televised performances, including the season twenty-one finale of Dancing with the Stars, Jimmy Kimmel Live! and at the 2015 MTV Europe Music Awards. Background and development "Worth It" was produced and co-written by Norwegian production company, Stargate, consisting of duo Mikkel S. Eriksen and Tor Erik Hermansen and Ori Kaplan, with additional writing from Priscilla Renea. The song was released on January 15, 2015, on streaming and downloading services but officially impacted American rhythmic crossover radio as a single on March 2, 2015. A Spanish version titled "Dame Esta Noche" (Spanish for "Give Me This Night") was released to iTunes on July 10, 2015, following the success of the single.
