"19 Kids and Counting" patriarch Jim Bob Duggar playfully contributed to a rap song during an appearance in Westerville, Ohio last month. 

The Duggars appeared on stage with Christian comedian Anita Renfroe at Grace Polaris Church, and Jim Bob acted as her hypeman.

Renfroe's parody song, "In Tha Muthahood," went viral three years ago and she performed the funny anthem during the church's fundraiser. Jim Bob threw his hands in the air, spun around, and added some bass to the chorus. 

The Duggar father may have picked up on some of his children's musical abilities and knack for performing. 

Some of the "19 Kids & Counting" sons created a YouTube channel, "Duggar Studios," last year, mostly containing music videos of them lip-syncing to country songs.

The first video was a collaboration with their friends, the Bates family, and featured the Duggar and Bates boys lip-syncing to Lawson Bates' rendition of "Happiness is the Lord."

The reality stars yodelled and played the ukulele, guitar, accordion, and violin in the free-spirited music video.

Jim Bob's son-in-law, Ben Seewald, also has some vocal talent, which he demonstrated in a series of Instagram videos in December. 

While he and his wife, Jessa, took a road trip to Hot Springs, Arkansas, Ben impersonated Gene Autry on "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer," and sang Bing Crosby's "White Christmas," Andy Williams' "It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year," and the Doris Day hit "When I Fall in Love."

At home, the Duggars play a lot of classical music, and do not allow secular music or dancing.

There's just certain cautions you've got to be careful about because if you're gonna cause someone else to stumble by your actions and your behaviour, it's something that you really want to be careful not to defraud someone and stir up desires that really cannot be righteously fulfilled," matriarch Michelle Duggar explained
