"A Woman's Worth" became another top-ten success for Keys in the United States, where it reached number seven on the Billboard Hot 100 and number three on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs. The accompanying music video for the song, directed by Chris Robinson, is a continuation of the video for "Fallin'" video and explores what happened when Keys' on-screen love interest got released from prison and tried to acclimate to society. The video was nominated for both Best R&B Video and Best Cinematography at the 2002 MTV Video Music Awards, while the song won an NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Song the same year.

Music video edit

The single's music video was directed by Chris Robinson and shot entirely in Brooklyn, New York.[1] Its plot continues from Keys' previous video for "Fallin'" which revolves around Keys' travel to her imprisoned boyfriend. "A Woman's Worth" picks up where the previous video left, depicting his release from prison and tries to acclimate to society.[1] The clip premiered on BET's 106 & Park on October 16, 2001.[1][2]

Live performances edit

At the 2002 Grammy Awards ceremony, Keys performed both "Fallin'" and a tango-influenced version of "A Woman's Worth". On June 26, 2011, at the BET Awards, Keys performed the song as a duet with Bruno Mars.[3]
