Brakes can do that and less so wheel bearings which much more often growl on turns at first. Make sure inner fender splash shield is tightly in place by hand. It isn't that strong and could actually be rubbing at some speed?

Splash shields are secure. It starts making that sound at 20 mph

Could be a little bit of a hunt for the noise. Try taking that wheel off, look at brake for anything obvious up to take caliper off and check the splash shield for the brake which can rub if too close.
Better yet since it seems one side look at both front brakes for wear - they should match.
Does this noise happen more or less while shifting weight with turns? If so that suggest a wheel bearing. Trouble is at first you won't feel anything wrong with it on the car or just spinning wheel and feeling for free-play. They don't get free play till the problem is so bad the wheel could fall off and no question what the problem is then but you can't wait for that - too dangerous.
CV joints and 1/2 shafts almost always behave even if bad when driving straight ahead so doubt that right now. Those usually crackle or crunchy sounds or feel on sharp turns from a stop even and accelerating. Boot should be looked at and if torn they will fail but don't think it's the problem at hand right now.


Wheel(s) off would now be my first move and brake check including the splash plate for BRAKE not the wheel in general,
