It’s not every day that a song gets two video treatments, but that’s the case with “Outside.”

The quasi-title track for Kanak’s Ed Stasium-produced EP, “On the Outside,” once again is the Makin Waves Song of the Week in a rare encore for the column.

As the Makin Waves Song of the Week, “Outside” also can be heard between 6 and 8 p.m. on Jan. 19 on “Radio Jersey” at ThePenguinRocks.com. If you miss it, you can tune in any time in the archives at The Penguin and MixCloud.

“On the Outside” will drop March 22.
