"Blue Angels" is a hip-hop song by Pras Michel, released as the third single from his debut solo studio album, Ghetto Supastar. The track features vocals from American group The Product G&B. The single was released on September 28, 1998 as a last minute replacement for What'cha Wanna Do, which was removed from shelves just days before release. Vocal & instrumental parts from “Grease” theme are sampled in. The music video (directed by Antoine Fuqua) features Pras on a submarine that is about to crash.
