All of the money raised at the event – which was hosted by DJ Khaled – was donated to charity.
The star-studded line-up included the likes of Alicia Keys, Kelly Rowland and Robin Thicke.
It has now been confirmed that AC Milan and Roc Nation have formed a partnership – which has promised to “excite and surprise” the Italian club’s fans.
Former Arsenal chief turned Milan CEO Ivan Gazidis said: “Roc Nation is thrilled to embark on this unique partnership with AC Milan.
“Both brands possess a strong commitment to community, which was evident through the success of ‘From Milan With Love’.
“I am looking forward to building on that success by creating more opportunities together that combine the integrity of the club’s rich history and Roc Nation’s signature ability to create and move culture.”
Michael Yormark, Co-CEO of Roc Nation, added: “AC Milan as a club has always looked to push the boundaries and do things differently.
“This ambitious partnership will help us to showcase the power of the AC Milan and Roc Nation brands across sport.”
Roc Nation is a management agency founded by billionaire businessman Jay Z.
