Worth tha Weight is the debut solo studio album by American rapper Shawnna. Originally scheduled to be released in 2002, it was then delayed to Fall 2003. The album was ultimately released on September 28, 2004 by Def Jam Recordings and Disturbing tha Peace. Production was handled by several record producers, including B-Crucial, Just Blaze, Kanye West, Bangladesh, DJ Nasty & LVM, and Shawnna's brother Michael Antonio "Icedrake" Guy. It features guest appearances from Ludacris, Jermaine Dupri, Kardinal Offishall, Katt Williams, Missy Elliott, Noreaga, Rich Nice and Twista. The album peaked at number 22 on the Billboard 200 and, to date, has sold 380,000 copies to date in the U.S.

It was supported by two singles: Timbaland-produced "Shake Dat Shit" and Trackboyz-produced "Weight a Minute". The album contains three remixed tracks: "Posted" from DTP's 2002 compilation album Golden Grain, "Block Reincarnated" from the 2003 soundtrack album for John Singleton's action movie 2 Fast 2 Furious, and "Dude" from Beenie Man's 2004 album Back to Basics. The song "Let's Go" was featured on the 2004 video game Def Jam: Fight for NY, in which Shawnna also appeared as playable character.
