I likened LEXICON to a dictionary. I want friends who want to know Isyana Sarasvati more deeply to enter an episode of Isyana's journey that has never been revealed anywhere. I like giving a dictionary of my life wrapped in melody, instrumentation with lyrics. Isyana Sarasvati's said at Shoemaker, Cikini, Central Jakarta, Friday, November 29, 2019.

LEXICON summarizes several episodes of Isyana Sarasvati's journey. What's different, this time Isyana freed herself from the production, the selection of producers involved, to the concept of a special box set. The album is produced by Isyana Sarasvati with Gerald Situmorang, Kenan Loui, and Tohpati. The work of the LEXICON album was done for one month until finally it was released to close this November. Isyana played a full role in the arrangement of songs in the album.
