'I think that you should be able to do whatever you want to do,' T.I. tells 'RapFix Live' about his stance on same-sex marriage. By Rob Markman, with reporting by Sway Calloway

President Obama is no stranger to hip-hop's support. Not only have MCs dedicated songs to the 44th U.S. Prez, but guys like Jay-Z, Diddy and Ludacris have openly backed Barack. While many criticized Obama for his support of same-sex marriage, Hov backs him, and so does T.I.

"Just to speak honestly and being frank, I don't care," the "Live Your Life" MC said about the non-stop debate on same-sex marriage when he appeared on Wednesday's "RapFix Live." "I think that if a matter doesn't affect your daily life, you shouldn't take a hard stand on it. If it's not something that directly affects you, if it doesn't affect you, what difference does it make to you what other people are doing with their lives?"

Tip, who is currently serving probation stemming from his 2007 weapons arrest, is unable to vote, but once his probation is lifted in September he revealed that he plans to vote for Obama, who will be looking to secure a second term as head of state. "I don't think that's a hard question," he said.

During an interview with CNN on Monday, Jay applauded the president for speaking out in support of the gay-rights movement. "I've always thought it as something that was still holding the country back," Jay-Z said. "What people do in their own homes is their business, and you can choose to love whoever you love. That's their business. It's no different than discriminating against blacks. It's discrimination, plain and simple."

"I think that you should be able to do whatever you want to do," T.I. remarked. "I don't see how it matters one way or another."
