Default Squeaking in rear?

Hey guys wanted to see if anyone had a experience like mine. I have a pretty loud squeaking sounds when I am in reverse or forward and it is more apparent when I am moving slowly. It also seems to squeak every rotation. It only seems to be in the rear and doesn't sound any different over bumpers or turns. Could it be the hubs, bearings or brakes?

Also what's weird is I don't feel any difference and it went from pretty much no sound to really loud.

How do you loosen the e-brake? Cause I use my ebrake quite frequently and when I take it off and start driving I can hear it lately...

I haven't researched it yet, I'm hoping it's the opposite of tightening them.. ( pushing in the opposite direction from tightening)... I hope I don't have to take the drum off....
