The only reason I made this account was to talk about this one subject. This has been in my mind for a very long time, me and my parents have an old SNES that has Super Mario Bros all stars on it, and I remember I did some weird glitch while I was playing the game. What followed was really strange it was a black screen with just a weird song, but the song was kind of catchy I think I don't remember it that well. But if anyone can manage to do this glitch I would be really happy and be able to put my mind at ease knowing that, that's what happened.

Was it an easter egg? I feel like it was since you mentioned a weird song. I think you encountered Totaka's Song, a recurring easter egg put in games that Kazumi Totaka worked on. www.mariowiki.com/Totaka%27s_Song I have never played All Stars, but I'm 90% sure this is what you are mentioning.
Totaka's Song wouldn't be my first guess, but not outside the realm of possibility I suppose. OP should be able to identify if the song they heard was a regular game track or Totaka's Song.
As much as I genuinely want it to be that song it is not, however I have thought of a possible tune that was actually in the song. It was like the Superstar theme you know the one that whenever you get the star I think it was that but it sounded warped it was almost like a medley between all of the themes.
I’m fairly certain I’ve ran into the same glitch as you recently. I was messing around with glitched levels in The Lost Levels and every now and then a black screen would appear with music playing. What you might have heard was the SMB1/Lost Levels final bowser theme, it was the same one I was hearing. How the glitch may have been activated for you, I wouldn’t know. However, I’m sure we experienced the same glitch.
