Forrest Frank

Forrest Frank is a rapidly rising American Christian musician, songwriter, and producer known for his genre-bending sound that merges pop, hip-hop, and soul with faith-based lyrics. His career is defined by a seven-year journey of persistence, beginning in high school when he became hooked on beat-making after seeing someone use a Maschine Micro. A pivotal turning point in his life occurred during his sophomore year at Baylor. Despite growing up in a Christian home, Frank struggled with anxiety and did not have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. After a 3-day prayer and fast, he felt called to a local church service where he experienced a profound spiritual shift, allowing the weight of bondage and darkness to lift. This transformative experience became a cornerstone of his artistry and is heavily referenced in his music, notably on tracks like "Testimony" from his album Child of God II. Frank gained significant momentum with his unique, upbeat, and encouraging sound, often blending different musical textures to create infectious, high-energy worship music. His dedication paid off, moving from seven years without earning income from music to reaching massive streaming numbers—at one point in 2025, he garnered 140 million monthly listeners on YouTube Music, surpassing major artists like Drake. Recently, Frank has become an outspoken voice regarding the intersection of faith and technology. In November 2025, he highlighted the concerning rise of AI-generated music in the Christian industry, pointing out that an AI-created artist, Solomon Ray, reached number one on the iTunes Christian charts. Frank expressed concerns that AI lacks the Holy Spirit and questioned the implications for worship music, asserting that true praise comes from human experience and spirit. His career continues to trend upward, defined by a blend of raw artistic talent, entrepreneurial savvy from his business degree, and a deeply rooted faith that informs his creative output

Forrest Frank has developed a strong, mission-driven approach to charity and humanitarian work. His charitable interests are deeply rooted in his faith, focusing on community impact, child sponsorship, and using his platform for evangelical outreach. A central component of Frank's philanthropic efforts is his partnership with World Vision, a Christian humanitarian organization. He has actively engaged with their mission to provide clean water, nutrition, education, and healthcare to children, families, and communities in need. Frank utilizes his concerts as a platform to raise awareness and encourage his audience to engage in child sponsorship. These initiatives emphasize empowering children and supporting community-focused solutions. Beyond monetary donations, Frank views his career as a form of ministry. He leverages his large social media following—particularly on TikTok—and live performances to share his testimony and message of faith. This includes organizing and participating in events like UniteUS at Grand Canyon University, which drew 7,000 students, focusing on gospel proclamation and rededicating lives to Christ. His outreach often targets younger generations, aiming to inspire them through his personal story of finding freedom in Christ. Frank’s approach to charity is deeply tied to his personal convictions regarding humility and keeping focus on God. In 2025, he announced that he would no longer accept industry awards, such as those from the Dove Awards or Grammys, arguing that his music is for Jesus and should not be used to elevate his own name. This stance highlights a commitment to directing attention toward his ministry rather than personal accolade.
