It's only been a young man's game because hip hop is relatively young itself. This ain't sports. You can be rapping at an older age. It's more so the brain rot these kids have now. Microwave instant music they listen to.
Methodman and Redman get a cold reception at summer jam. MethodMan says he’ll never perform there again cause of generation gap.

I don’t think they’ll miss you Meth.

It's about music.
Old soul, rock, funk etc., bands can keep touring because the music and live performances are worth it. You get a show with some dancing, elite instrumentals and great singing.
What rappers are truly entertaining to see in person compared to any great legacy non-rap act?
Like if Cash Money went on tour in 2000, they'd sell out everything because it's the hottest ticket on Earth with a bunch of new hits. Would people have the same energy 30 years later?
What rappers put on a show like James Brown, Michael Jackson, Prince, Earth Wind & Fire? You can make money touring at your peak because you're the hottest act in the country....but legacy touring is about the quality of the show and people feeling like they'll get their money's worth. It's like someone standing on stage, dropping poetry to a beat. Most people don't want that.

Unfortunately the last generation that really rocked with Red and Meth are millennials. They are just not on the radar for the under 30 crowd. They are a legacy act but their average fan is in their 40s.
Method man have to stay overseas who appreciate older rap artist more than the microwave United States who in a large scale doesn’t care
Raekwon stay overseas and up in Canada
Raekwon stay overseas and up in Canada
point still stands Baby up there forgetting his own struggle verses.
That's because most of the other parts of the world are more educated and can appreciate Hip Hop a bit more...Also, music in most forms is respected in that part of the globe...
Not here..
