All in the family.

Beyoncé’s youngest daughter, Rumi, 6, has scored a spot on her famous mom’s album “Act II: Cowboy Carter.”

The country music-inspired record dropped on Friday, with Rumi appearing on the single “Protector.”

“Mom, can I hear the lullaby, please?” Rumi croons on the track as the Grammy winner, 42, then sings: “And I will lead you down that road if you lose your way/ Born to be a protector, mm-hmm/ Even though I know someday you’re gonna shine on your own/ I will be your projector, mmm, mm-hmm.”

“Even though I know some day you’re gonna shine on your own/ I will be your projector, yeah, yeah/ And even though I know some day you’re gonna shine on your own/ I will be your protector, born to be a protector,” Beyoncé goes on.

Rumi — who is the twin sister of brother Sir Carter — is not the only singer in the family.

Alongside parents Beyoncé and Jay-Z, older sister Blue Ivy, 12, also has some pipes on her.

Blue even won a Grammy Award for her singing on the “Dreamgirls” star’s hit “Brown Skin Girl” in 2021. She was then featured on the tracks “Blue” and “My Power.”

“Cowboy Carter” has a medley of guest singers and surprise collaborators, including Willie Nelson, Dolly Parton, Miley Cyrus and Post Malone.

The much-anticipated eighth studio album follows her 2022 CD “Act I: Renaissance.”

Other yee-haw-inducing songs on Beyoncé’s album are “Texas Hold ‘Em,” “16 Carriages.” “Bodyguard” and “Oh Louisiana.”

Beyoncé revealed earlier this month what led her to create her new music, noting that her ill-received 2016 CMA performance with the Chicks is what motivated her.

At the time, she took the stage with the band to perform her song “Daddy Lessons” from her record, “Lemonade.”

“This album has been over five years in the making,” she wrote via Instagram on March 19 alongside the cover art for the project. “It was born out of an experience that I had years ago where I did not feel welcomed … and it was very clear that I wasn’t.”

“But, because of that experience, I did a deeper dive into the history of country music and studied our rich musical archive,” she added. “It feels good to see how music can unite so many people around the world.”

“The criticisms I faced when I first entered this genre forced me to propel past the limitations that were put on me. act ii is a result of challenging myself, and taking my time to bend and blend genres together to create this body of work.”
