Problem solved by using MediaMetadataRetriever.

MediaMetadataRetriever mediaMetadataRetriever = (MediaMetadataRetriever) new MediaMetadataRetriever();
        Uri uri = (Uri) Uri.fromFile(mp3File);
        mediaMetadataRetriever.setDataSource(MainActivity.this, uri);
        String title = (String) mediaMetadataRetriever.extractMetadata(MediaMetadataRetriever.METADATA_KEY_TITLE);

jd3lib is a Java library that handles MP3s, and their tags. Probably a useful starting point.
