Illy dropped "Catch 22" on 10 October 2016, pairing the Australian rapper with English singer Anne-Marie and using the release to announce his fifth studio album, Two Degrees. Anne-Marie told Triple J's Matt and Alex that she liked the way Illy held on to his Australian accent when he rapped, which is why working together struck her as a good idea.

The video, directed by Mark Alston, followed on 6 November: a crew of friends in a video game arcade that had been left for dead find a machine called Catch 22 that lets them test their fate. It earned a Best Video nomination at the ARIA Music Awards of 2017, and at the APRA Music Awards of 2018 the song took home Urban Work of the Year.
