It sounds like your music is completely untagged. MPFreaker needs songs to at least have an Artist and either a Song Title or an Album Title + Track Number in order to do anything with it.
If your song filenames have the artist & song title in them, that's what you'll see for the song title in both iTunes and MPFreaker. They don't know what part is artist and what part is song title, however -- in fact, amongst your library of music, the naming scheme may not be consistent. If this is what you're experiencing, you have two options:
1) Fingerprint-based tagging. There's a free program called iEatBrainz that will help you tag your songs based on their acoustic "fingerprint". It hasn't been updated in a while and doesn't always work, but I just tried it now and it worked for me.
2) Filename-based tagging. TriTag (free), Media Rage ($30), and Jaikoz (£15, ~$30) all can be configured for your filename scheme to interpret them and store them as proper music tags, which then can be read by iTunes, MPFreaker, etc.
None of these solutions is a walk in the park, but they'll address the problem. Of course, at the end of all that, if I have misunderstood the nature of your problem, please elaborate and I (or someone else) will help you out.
