RPi not RS232 ... and if you connected the serial port pins directly to RS232 device then you could damage the RPi. The RPi pins are 3.3v and RS232 is 5V and 12V ... expect major problems if you simply wire them together.
You can get an adapter or connect via USB. However, I do not know of a built-in way to control or get song info out of that port. I expect that it could be done if you write some software (or find someone to do it for you).
