I'm searching for an application that allows me to pin music album art, song names, and other metadata directly onto my desktop—preferably as a widget that stays in place and doesn't overlay other applications. It would be awesome if it also included a visualizer for when I'm playing music. I tried using a tool from GitHub but couldn't get it to work properly and it became really frustrating. I'm using Linux Mint 22.1 with the Cinnamon desktop environment, and I want the functionality to behave like a desktop widget or desklet.

It's super important to note your desktop environment, which I see is Cinnamon! You definitely want something compatible with it.
Oh, I just woke up and forgot to mention it—thanks for pointing that out!
