The beef between Kodak Black and Maranda Johnson, the mother of two of his children, is now a veritable public spectacle. After Johnson spewed a scorching Instagram rant in which she accused Kodak Black of abuse, neglect, and even engineering an acid attack, the rapper’s longtime attorney, Bradford Cohen, is fighting back with all his might flatly refuting the claims and suggesting that some rather heavy legal action is brewing.
The reality star and entrepreneur Maranda Johnson launched Seven Luke Cosmetics and became a partner with Allure Realty at age 21. She gave birth to her first child with Kodak Black in 2022, and the two have had a rocky relationship. The relationship between the two has turned toxic, as both sides are now taking an entrenched stance. Now that the dust is settling, the lingering question is whether it is one of the courtroom or social media.
The drama started when Johnson took to her Instagram Story to vent a series of hardcore frustrations. In an emotional post, she called Kodak a “deadbeat” and claimed that he isn’t present in their kids’ lives or offering them financial support. She also made disturbing allegations that she had been beaten and attacked by men she said were sent to throw acid on her face, although she provided no details or proof. “You mad I’m not bout to sit up under you getting slapped around and CONTROLED [sic] BY YOU. Right plan, WRONG b*tch,” she wrote. “You doing everything in yo power to see me down bad you evil a** lame a** n***a.”

The allegations were explosive, and news reverberated across social media, leaving Cohen to respond quickly and directly. Using his Instagram account, he painstakingly shredded Johnson’s claims to the bitter wind, refusing to abandon his client, who now faces potential legal consequences for her announcement. “Made-up stories,” Cohen said. “We have evidence of Kodak not only paying and giving money for his children but also buying gifts. The rest is pure fiction from a very selfish young lady.”
But the lawyer didn’t stop defending his client, instead, he counterattacked. The women in the case Johnson points to as the rape victims of Clinton. According to Cohen, they were not victims. Instead, he claimed that she had done some extensive property damage and gotten involved in violent incidents, including one that reportedly left a child in danger. “I didn’t want to comment on this young lady committing defamation which we will sue her for, but also for the over 150k worth of damage she did to 7 cars and smashing a window of the house that had his kids inside,” Cohen said. “She fought another mother of Kodak’s young child hurt the child and the mother at a b day party that Kodak paid thousands of dollars for his daughter,” Mr. Berlin wrote.
Cohen’s tone sharpened as he continued, calling Johnson’s move a “money grab” and criticizing how Kodak was depicted not just by Johnson but by a culture that often represents fathers as cash machines rather than joint parents. “It’s really disgusting money grab,” he wrote. “Not allowing him to see his kids until he pays an ungodly sum of money. It is truly disgusting how fathers are treated as cash cows.” The message from Kodak Black’s legal team is plain, and they’re prepared to fight for it.
