Why I think FP is getting popular:
* It's old as hell which means is battle proven
* Before it was hard to understand since everything pointed to look at it with a "mathematical view" which not every developer has. Now there are more tutorials and "Blog posts"
* New technologies emerged which follow the pattern with familiar syntax and great tooling.
Right now why should you? I'd say why not? If you already know OOP, FP can give you more ways on think about problems and solutions. Plus, it can give you a competitive advantage over other developers.
It is definitely not a hammer which can nail down everything, but it's a good tool to have around.
