Nicki Minaj New Song 'Only' Video: Minaj Apologizes For Nazi Imagery In 'Only' Video, But Director 'Not Sorry'

Following the recent controversial music video from rapper Nicki Minaj entitled "Only," the famous Hollywood celebrity finally broke her silence and even apologized to those who were offended.

Apparently the music video, which used imagery that resembled the signs and colors of Adolf Hitler's Nazi propaganda, wasn't Minaj's idea, but nevertheless, the rapper takes full responsibility as she revealed in her latest Twitter post.

"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 overseeing the lyric video (one of my best friends & videographer: A. Loucas), happen to be Jewish," Minaj wrote on her Twitter account.

"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," she added.

The artist apologized even though the video wasn't purposely intended to glorify the Nazi party or Adolf Hitler, but apparently, the director of the music video refuses to do the same.

The director Jeffrey Osborne gave a statement to MySpace saying "First, I'm not apologizing for my work, nor will I dodge the immediate question. The flags, armbands, and gas mask (and perhaps my use of symmetry?) are all representative of Nazism," he stated.

"But a majority of the recognizable models/symbols are American: MQ9 Reaper Drone, F22 Raptor, Sidewinder missile, security cameras, M60, SWAT uniform, General's uniform, the Supreme court, and the Lincoln Memorial. What's also American is the 1 Amendment, which I've unexpectedly succeeded in showing how we willfully squeeze ourselves out of that right every day," Osborne added.

Meanwhile, the Anti-Defamation League refuses to believe that the video wasn't purposely released for what it is accused of since the video debuted on the same day of the 76th anniversary of Kristallnacht, the 'Night of Broken Glass' pogrom that signaled the beginning of the Final Solution and the Holocaust.

"As far as an explanation, I think its actually important to remind younger generations of atrocities that occurred in the past as a way to prevent them from happening in the future. And the most effective way of connecting with people today is through social media and pop culture. So if my work is misinterpreted because it's not a sappy tearjerker, sorry I'm not sorry. What else is trending?" Jeffrey Osborne said.
