Nicki Minaj: Only
Nicki Minaj: condemnation
And she's all like, "I have Jewish friends and I'm sorry if I offended you. Also, I had nothing to do with it."
In a three tweet statement on her Twitter, Minaj said the inspiration for the "Only" lyric video was not World War II propaganda but Sin City and the Cartoon Network show Metalocalypse and that several of the producers and artists on the video are actually Jewish.
The artist who made the lyric video for “Only” was influenced by a cartoon on Cartoon Network called "Metalocalypse" & Sin City.

Both the producer, & person in charge of over seeing the lyric video (one of my best friends & videographer: A. Loucas), happen to be Jewish — NICKI MINAJ (@NICKIMINAJ) November 11, 2014
I didn't come up w/the concept, but I'm very sorry & take full responsibility if it has offended anyone. I'd never condone Nazism in my art. — NICKI MINAJ (@NICKIMINAJ) November 11, 2014
That still doesn't quite explain the bombs, the red flags with a white and black Young Money symbol or the military marches seen in "Only," but you know...
"Only" is the latest single from Nicki Minaj's upcoming album The Pink Print, which is due for release on Dec. 15. The album has previously been led by singles "Pills N Potions" and "Anaconda."
