Default Squeaking noise when driving slow

My 04 is making a squeak-squeak noise when driving slow up to about 25mph (at least noticeable up to that speed). When I touch the brakes it stops. It does it when turning too. Sounds like it's coming from right side and it's fairly loud too. I'm thinking it's a wheel bearing. Any ideas?

After reading past posts, someone suggested a belt or a pulley bearing. Don't think it's that cus it doesn't change with engine speed. Although my belt is squeaky when cold.

Wouldn't surprise me if it were just one of your rear brake pads.
Wheel bearing will typically make more of a grinding sound.
