Nicki Minaj released the lyric video for her single “Only” Saturday, and its Nazi-inspired imagery has generated much outrage.

In the black-and-white clips of the video, Minaj is shown as a dictator presiding over thousands of soldiers who are wearing “YM” armbands, which presumably stand for her record company “Young Money.” The armbands strongly resemble the ones Nazi soldiers wore with swastikas.

The buildings in the Nuremberg-style video are also draped in red banners with the same logo, with tanks and guns firing in the background.
