There's also a noise of some metal rubbing (circular motion, fairly certain somewhere from the wheels) which I can only hear when the windows are down and there's something on the side of the road to reflect the noise, like barricading.
Yesterday, I noticed if I am going on the highway over 100kmph, there was vibration in the vehicle in general, not specifically the steering wheel or anything and also at some point, I had to focus more to keep the car in the same lane, hard to explain. I wouldn't say that it was dragging to any particular direction but someone mentioned "it's like it has a mind of it's own" in terms of direction.
I think it could be the wheel bearing, or the other possibility from my research is the rotors. I would say that the noise was there since a few months and I did check for dust or anything visible between the brake pads and rotors but saw nothing out of place.
Any idea or anything that I can do myself to pinpoint the issue here?

Oh I do hope you meant 100 KPH not 100k MPH! If doing 100K MPH your bearings are melting.
Sounds to me like your parking brake may be dragging a bit. That is often more noticeable in reverse and can give you a brushing noise at speed. I would at least start there.
