Nicki Minaj Facing Backlash for Nazi Imagery in ‘Only’ Lyric Video: WATCH

Controversy is building on the internet (i.e. Twitter) for Nicki Minaj's new lyric video, for the song "Only." Both fans and the Anti-Defamation League have criticized the video for its use of Nazi imagery.

The song shows off Minaj's top-notch bragging skills, but while the rapper talks about how great she is, the animated lyric video portrays her as a dictator commanding scores of soldiers and weapons.

Throughout the video is the use of a swastika-esque symbol: a red background, white circle and black "Young Money" logo (pictured above). It can even be found on the soldier's armbands.

Minaj has yet to respond to outcry, which includes many calling for apologies, or the video's removal.
