US rapper Macklemore has pledged to donate Australian earnings from his song Same Love to the 'Yes' campaign for same-sex marriage.
The star has found himself at the centre of the debate after a backlash from conservative commentators unhappy he will perform the marriage equality anthem at Sunday's rugby league grand final in Sydney.
In the lead-up to the performance, he said the power of music was not to divide people but create debate and conversation.
"I haven't figured it out yet but I ... want to donate my portion of the proceeds from Same Love that I get off of that record here in Australia to voting yes," Macklemore told the Nine Network on Saturday.
