Musical talent runs in her family roots, noting that Alex's father Ernie Isley, and her uncles together, make up the widely-known soul group The Isley Brothers. From beginning performances in the living room to elementary school talent shows, she started to develop a passion that would lead to a career as a musician. She began classical vocal training and at the age of 12 would later attend the LA County High School for the Arts, where she discovered a love not only for listening to, but performing jazz as well.
Jazz greats such as Ella Fitzgerald and Kurt Elling left an immense impression on her and her approach to performing, which she incorporated into her performances as a Jazz Studies major at UCLA. During her college years, Alex began songwriting, drawing from her own personal experiences as well as those of friends and family. She wrote most of what would later become her self-written and produced debut EP, The Love/Art Memoirs, which was released to positive reception in 2012. This was followed up over a year later with the album Dreams in Analog, which featured the song "About Him". Her second album L U X U R Y was released in December 2015, with a sole guest appearance from Kenyon Dixon.
In 2018 and 2019, Isley respectively released the first and second parts to her EP The Beauty of Everything, which featured the duet with SiR "Love On-Demand" as well as "Road to You". November 2019 saw Isley collaborate with producer Jack Dine for the EP Wilton. Their musical relationship would continue into the next year with the singles "Gone" and "Good & Plenty", the latter of which would have a remix with Masego and Lucky Daye released in March 2021. In November, Isley & Dine released the single "Still Wonder" featuring jazz musician Robert Glasper, and is expected to appear on the duo's upcoming album.

on My Theme
Alex Isley
The Love/Art Memoirs
My Theme
Verse 1
Cold game, cold game
You’re playin’ love like an old game
And I'm aflame, I'm aflame
Heart burning like a bright flame,
I'm Still the same for you, for you
And If I try to tell you any different, don't believe me
I won't change for you, (for) you
Well maybe I'd pretend, but it’s only temporarily
Yeah
Pre Chorus
So, tell me what I want
I want you to say I'm in YOUR dreams
I give you what you want
'Cause till this very day, you're in my dreams
Baby, you're my theme
Chorus
(Na na na na na na na-na ah)
You're the MAN I dream
(Na na na na na na na-na ah)
You-uuu-uu
Verse 2
Day break, somehow
I'm thinking everything is real now
It's crazy how that works, ha
But it don't work for me,
Imagination likes to fool me, Vividly!!
I'll tell ya I'm pretty sure reality better
So, maybe we could talk about it NOW,
Maybe I'll mention forever,
So, I could live it out all over again
Never mind your mistakes,
Pick it up from the place we were
I wish that were okay
I wish that was the case, babe
Pre Chorus
(So, tell me what I want)
I want you to say I'm in your dreams, babe
(Give you what you want yeah)
I give you what you want
'Cause till this day you're in my dreams, oh
Baby you're my theme
Chorus
(Na na na na na na na-na ah)
You're the main idea
(Na na na na na na na-na ah)
Just tell me what I wanna hear, baby
(Ohh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Bridge
What's the meaning?
You bring me to the edge
Without a chance to take it in
I'm tired of dreaming
Can I get that new beginning when I wake again?
Pre Chorus (Interlude)
(Tell me what I want babe),
Tell me what I want babe,
(You’re still in my dreams bae)
'Cause this don't work for me, no more
(Tell me what I want babe),
Yeah ye-heay
(You're still in my dreams, bae)
Verse 3 (Extended Bridge)
In love with what I can't obtain,
Besides the butterfly’s I don't know what remains
Can the story ever change?
(I guess) No matter what I sing you wont feel the same, or will ya?
You're still in my dreams, baby baby

on For The Stars
This reminds me of a dream, yeah
I just wanna see the end, yeah
Things are harder than they seem, yeah
Keep runnin’ away from me, yeah but why?
I’m pretty sure that I don’t want the world in my hands, that ain’t what I said
So what’s so painful ‘bout holding my hand? my hand…is that much too grand?
Can you love me where we are? Or am I reaching for the stars?
Can you really handle where we are? Or am I reaching for the stars?
Close your eyes and just pretend, yeah
in a maze that never ends, yeah
How amazing it could be, yeah
If both you and I could win, yeah but how?
Ooh I’m not the type to go for all the world in my hands, that ain’t what I said
So what’s so scary ‘bout holding my hand? my hand…is that much too grand?
Can you love me where we are? Or am I reaching for the stars?
Can you really handle where we are? Or am I reaching for the stars?
Have I gone too far baby? Could you love me now baby? Am I getting close baby? Could you love me here baby?
