[1] Financial Times's Ludovic Hunter-Tilney described the song's production as resembling "a brooding cinema soundtrack, subordinate to the star rappers in the acoustic spotlight".
[1][4] During Drake's "half-formed" hook and two-minute verse;[5][6] he shows his allegiance to Nike by taking a shot at Adidas, with the line "I've been too solid to ever have stripes on my sneak's, you get what I mean?".
[8] Rolling Stone's Yoh Phillip's agreed, writing: "Drake's appearance on 'Having Our Way' has rightfully received the attention it warrants, but Takeoff's closing verse is spectacular".
[9] NME's Sam Moore called the track "triumphant",[10] while BET's Dimitri Ehrlich deemed it a "classic": "Complimented [sic] by a standout feature from Drake, this song is a perfect example of the sonically satisfying way Migos uses the sound of close and imperfect rhymes (for example, the way 'circulation', 'matrix' and 'lavish' bang up against one another)".
[11] The New Yorker's Sheldon Pearce opined: They [Migos] can't stunt on Drake's level; on 'Having Our Way', he undermines their compressed performances with nonchalance, rapping in the laid-back singsong of someone lounging around during a high-end spa treatment".
