Future brings new meaning to the idea of “finding love in a hopeless place”.

Indeed, the hitmaking rapper/producer takes to the great beyond in his new clip ‘Real & True’ to find love in the form of out-of-this world serial twerker Miley Cyrus – who plays co-star in the song and its accompanying visual.

The Rankin-directed visual marks the second time the duo have shared time over musical bars, the first – ‘My Darlin’ –  appeared aboard Cyrus’ own ‘Bangerz’ album.

Did the second time hit the spot?  You tell us below:

Grammy winning songstress Ciara has certainly been doing her fair share of winning lately.

In addition to sending her faithful #CSquad into a frenzy over news that she was working on a new album, she also announced that the fan favorite “Overdose” (from her latest self-titled album) had been elected to be a single.  Then, the icing on the cake (all pun intended), came with reports that she and longtime beau/rapper Future were engaged.

As buzz – both positive and negative – behind the nuptials builds, Cici shared dibs recently on the wedding plans (which are already in effect).  As you check those out below, also get into future hubby Future setting the record straight on the drama that ensued in the past days after Ci took to the net to share some family photos:

With ‘Body Party’ now perched atop a Gold cloud by way of a half a million units sold, its Pop sister ‘Overdose’ eyes similar glory as it continues to rise on radio and in digital popularity.

Sure, while its bourgeoning success should have already seen Ciara share details on its video and promotional push with her fans, she did treat fans who arrived at the 9th Annual Paper Magazine Nightlife Awards with a unique rendition of the love song.

Hit the play button after the jump!

Let’s be honest, supporting Contemporary R&B hasn’t been easy in the last few years.

Left to fend for itself in a world without substantial radio backing, thinly spread budgets and widespread talk of it being ‘dead’, the genre has been dealt more than its fair share of commercial blows recently, much to the dismay of those who hold it most dear.
