Indeed.  The problem here is that Kodi does not look for tags in .mp3 files that are streamed from the internet because in many cases the tags are simply not present.

That is not the problem here.  The server doesn't return the values that Kodi is looking for to resend with Icy-Metadata: 1

Code:

Cache-Control: no-cache, no-store
Content-Type: audio/mpeg
Expires: Mon, 26 Jul 1997 05:00:00 GMT
Server: QuantumCast Streamer (Version v1.10.2 SHA:5023419f0cb48abfa9f29eb27f956ccbb73f11e3 21.05.03 20:36:40)

As a test I added m_state->m_httpheader.GetValue("content-type") == "audio/mpeg" it does play with Shoutcast data

I then tried with this url and it works from a strm file

Code:
