There are a couple reasons for this, some singers like to swing the microphone so it prevents the cable from detaching, a microphone can get slippery when your singing and moving so it can prevent it from slipping from your hands, colored tape can indicate to the sound man which microphone the main singer uses, and it can also be purely for fashion if you put neon color tape on it.

Yes. There are bands that record with tape because that's all they have access to. Also, there are plenty of people in the music industry that still prefer the sound of analog tape.

Most people are recording digitally, but there are still a few that use tape.
Before recorded music, the only way to hear music was to go to concerts or perform the music in your house on instruments. Before radio and phonographs, parlour pianos (uprights) were very popular and families would spend evenings sitting around the piano singing songs.
