Default Help! Odd Noise

A couple days ago I noticed an odd rattling/clicking noise (it's pretty loud), coming from what sounds like the front passenger's side wheel well area. I was kicking up some muddy gravel a day or two before I noticed the sound, which could possibly have something to do with it but I'm not sure. I thought it might be the CV but I checked the boots and they appeared to be fine. The noise doesn't start until I begin moving, and gradually goes away after driving for a few minutes. When I start to slow down, so does the noise which makes me think it has to do with something that's rotating. It make's the noise even when I'm not hitting the gas. I'm not sure if there's some piece of rock or debris stuck or what. If you have any insight please help. Thanks.

I recorded the noise if it helps at all, here's the link:

I noticed this is your first post. I need to let you know,

You need to have someone help you in person. Internet diagnoses of noises usually dont help.
