The visual for the track displays a cartoon Nicki leading an army of soldiers that are wearing red arm bands similar to ones worn by Nazi Party members. The video also includes insignia featuring “YM”(Young Money) logos and scenes of warfare. Animated versions of guest vocalists Chris Brown, Drake, and Lil Wayne also appear in the clip surrounded by red regalia with the YM letters.
Most of the top comments on the video’s YouTube page are complaints that the clip is irresponsible, insensitive, and anti-Semitic. Twitter users also expressed their outrage over the video.
