When you run emms-print-metadata on a file, does it provide some output?

For instance, on my machine:

$ emms-print-metadata /home/yrk/audio/jazz/Kamasi\ 
Washington/01_kamasi_washington_truth.mp3
info-album=Truth
info-albumartist=Kamasi Washington
info-artist=Kamasi Washington
info-title=Truth
info-tracknumber=1
info-discnumber=1
info-playing-time=810

Of course taglib needs to be installed for that to work.
