Rapping Missionary began as the on-mission persona of Elder Logan Castleton, who combined his love of music with missionary service for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Wearing his missionary badge and suit, he rapped about the gospel — and his videos reached over 15 million people worldwide: 30+ million views as of the conclusion of his mission.
Since completing his mission, the Rapping Missionary name and catalog now live under Castleton Records.
