Jay Z has been definitely stepping up over the past few weeks in order to aid those around the world, who have been affected by the recent devastating hurricanes.

According to a recent report from TMZ, Jay Z lent his New York 40/40 club Manhattan location Wednesday, October 5th, for a special Disaster Relief event for Puerto Rico and the Hurricane Maria victims.
