Default Sounds like a Bearing issue

When I start driving, I hear a grinding noise, like metal on metal. it increases in volume as speed up. Also to note that when im making left turns, or turn the steering wheel towards the left (like going on a curved road or banked highway ramp) the noise goes away? Any suggestions on what this might be?? Im thinking driver side bearing.

No nothing has been done to the car recently, im suspecting front drivers bearing because its louder on the left side then on the right, and also when i turn to the left it gets more quiet.

It most likely is the wheel bearing.
