In honor of Dance Flick, Shawn Wayans opens up his iTunes and gives us an exclusive look at what he’s spinning…

A Taste:

Jay-Z, 50 Cent, Barbara Streisand, Frank Sinatra

In Dance Flick, Shawn and Marlon Wayans bring all jokes right to the dance floor. The film pulls the right moves to make audiences laugh out loud. Shawn had a hand in the script, and he’s also hilarious as “Baby Daddy.” Check out the scene where he goes to “pick up his son.” Dance Flick has the kind of infectious irreverence that audiences have come to expect from the Wayans Brothers.

Shawn’s comedy has a rhythm to it, so in order to get us closer to that flow, he shared his playlist with us in this exclusive feature. Marlon added some commentary on Shawn’s selections too…

Peep Shawn’s playlist below and be sure to catch Dance Flick on May 22nd in theaters.
