How to obtain the current playing song using a command?

A musikcube user opened a feature request hykilpikonna/hyfetch#364 to display musikcube's current playing song on neofetch. How can I obtain this information using one command?

How can I obtain this information using one command?

I think the best solution for now would be parsing of playerctl metadata. Something like:

playerctl metadata --format "Now playing: {{ artist }} - {{ album }} - {{ title }}"
