Answer 1

Yes you can use MPMusicPlayerController class.

Return Value

The iPod music player.
nowPlayingItem

The currently-playing media item, or the media item, within a queue, that you have designated to begin playback with.
@property (nonatomic, copy) MPMediaItem *nowPlayingItem

MPMediaItem *currentPlayingSong = [[MPMusicPlayerController iPodMusicPlayer] nowPlayingItem];
