brake problem.. need help

i have no clue whats wrong with my brakes, but at times when i brake (no matter how soft or hard) i feel and hear this grinding noise coming from the front right side or from one of the drum brakes. the wheel doesnt vibrate or anything like that, but i can feel the grinding on the brake pedal. it only happens at times, meaning that its not a constant problem. can anyone tell me what might be wrong with it? thanks

btw, i did search and the only thing i found was that it might be abs, and i know what abs feels like and im certain its not. abs feels like a pumping, the problem i have is just a painful grind. you guys think my rotors are jacked?

Crashoveride is an unknown quantity at this point
Sounds like the pad might have cracked and broken, or there could be a bit of dirt in there. Might want to take the wheel off and take a look, give it a bit of cleaning and what not.

Good Luck
