Information on the rapper
Robin, also called the Boy Wonder, is the name of Batman's young sidekick in DC Comics; the team of Batman and Robin is commonly referred to as the "Dynamic Duo". The original Robin, Dick Grayson, was the orphaned son and apprentice of professional acrobats, and later left Batman's company to lead the Teen Titans, during his time with which he graduated from the Robin persona by becoming the full-fledged superhero known as Nightwing. The second Robin, Jason Todd, was infamously murdered by the Joker, but was later resurrected as the murderous vigilante known as the Red Hood (a name ironically used in the past by his own killer before he became the Joker). The third prominent Robin is Tim Drake, and various other individuals have used the name in subsequent stories as well, most recently Batman's own son Damian Wayne.
The Robin depicted in ERB is based on Burt Ward's portrayal of the character (more specifically Dick Grayson) alongside Adam West as Batman in the 1960s Batman television series.
Lyrics
…When he's needed!
Boy Wonder make you wonder how your ass got killed!
Bite harder than those hounds down in Baskerville!
I'll blast you with that bat-whack-rap repellent!
Rappel a building, snatch a villain, then by dinner, be chillin'!
Gotta secret 'bout your homegirl, Irene Adler:
Took her back to my nest to "bam pow kersplat" her!
I'll shatter that fiddle with a chop of the hand!
Holy Conan Doyle, let's get 'em! Aw, goddamn!
