According to Spike Lee, from his Bad 25 documentary, "Shamone" "isn't just a cool way to say "come on," but MJ's tribute to soul singer Mavis Staples, who used it in a live version of "I'll Take You There" in 1975."

Rest In Peace Michael Jackson - Shamone !
Today we lost a musical genius and perhaps the creator of what we now know as dance. We haven't lost what he taught us though - Shamone !

Hey girl, check out my red leather jacket I bought for the Shamone party on Friday?
That's dope, I'm wearing a sexy, short, tight, black dress, a fadora hat, a diamond crested glove and some diamond anklets like socks. I'm gonna be the sexiest girl at the Shamone.
Or
I donated $1,000 to Haiti for Shamone.

Originally coined by the great Michael Jackson, meaning, "come on". This incarnation was made new again by Whitney Huston on the television series, Being Bobby Brown. In a scene in which Whitney and Bobby go shopping for sunglasses, (findable on yout*be under,"Whitney and Bobby acting very crackish") Whitney enters the store feeling reeeeaaalllly good and exclaims, "Shamone!" This word now means. "I'm feeling so good today i just have to exclaim, "Shamone!"
-also, acceptable: Shamona!! for extra excitement!
