On May 11, 2022, Joey announced the title of his third studio album, with the original release date being planned for June 17, 2022, 5 days after the 10 year anniversary of the mixtape, 1999.[2] However, the album was delayed by a month, with Joey revealing on social media that it was due to sample clearance issues.[3] The album was eventually released on July 22, 2022.
On March 3, 2022, Joey Badass released the first single from the album titled "Head High", alongside a Colors Studio performance.[4] On July 1, the second single, "Where I Belong" was released with an accompanying music video.[5] The third single, "Survivors Guilt" was released on July 7, which is known as "Steez Day" dedicated to the late Capital Steez.[6] On July 15, the fourth single "Zipcodes", was released with a music video.[7] In July 2022, Joey Badass went on a 20-date summer concert tour, called the 1999-2000 Tour, with Capella Grey as the opening act.[8]
On September 2, the album was updated on digital streaming platforms, with the Statik Selektah-produced song "Let It Breathe" being added to the tracklist as the twelfth track on the album. The song was originally released as a music video on January 20, 2021 (Joey's 26th birthday) via YouTube, before releasing as an official single in August 2022.

Rolling Stone noted Joey Badass for being a "charismatic hero" and offered criticism towards the album's direction, noting "At times, 2000 strains under its ambition. It's unclear whether Bada$$ wants to build an Important Album or simply release something commensurate with his growing celebrity."[12] Pitchfork gave a positive review of 2000, praising the album's production. "The wide-ranging production often makes it easy to ignore the rough spots. Classy instrumental interpolations and crossover beats. It's a testament to Joey's growing ear that he sounds good on all of them." However, Pitchfork also called 2000 "underwhelming" in comparison to the buildup the album had since the release of 1999 in 2012.[11]
