Posted by Five months after the release of his Hall of Fame album, Polo G is feeling recharged. The Chicago native is gearing up to feed his fans with another 14 new tracks as part of the Hall of Fame 2.0 deluxe edition, which is set to arrive on December 3.
Polo G cemented the release date on Monday (November 8) with a minute-long cinematic trailer recounting the steps he took in his young career to get to this point.
Prior to the 2.0‘s arrival, Polo G will deliver his Michael Jackson-sampling “Bad Man” single on Friday (November 12). The track finds Polo putting a spin on the ’80s MJ classic “Smooth Criminal.”

Polo G debuted the King of Pop-sampling tune at Rolling Loud NYC last month and received a luke-warm reception from the audience who didn’t seem to be messing with the unreleased track.
