2) Discogs.com

"We're on a mission to build the biggest and most comprehensive electronic music database. Imagine a site with discographies of all labels, all artists, all cross-referenced. It's getting closer every day. We are slowly expanding Discogs into more types of music. The first is Hip Hop. As of now all Hip Hop submissions should go to hiphop.discogs.com. Please read the help documentation there for full details about the changes..."
