Macklemore is making conservative Australians mad

'Imma go harder, Imma love': Macklemore responds to NRL grand final controversy https://t.co/g8HQzzC67S

— smh.com.au (@smh) September 27, 2017

- He's to perform at the NRL grand final (like the Super bowl of Aus rugby)
- He's singing is Same Love (amongst others) bc rn Australia is trying to get same-sex marriage legalised
- Ultra conservative ex-pm and, Tony Abbott, was super salty about it and said the song should be banned etc
- Other conservative politicians/commentators/people joined in saying politics shouldn't be in sport (hmmm sounds familiar), with one saying it will besmirch the game and is '...tantamount to seeping sewage into the debutante ball'
- Same Love and Macklemore got a boost in the charts
- Macklemore told Abbott he's just 'gonna go harder' and that all proceeds of the song will go to the Yes campaign
- It's been a big thing
