What is a back beat?

When you talk about music, a backbeat means placing rythmic stress on the second and fourth beats of a measure. This means emphasizing the even beats in 4/4 time, while the first and third beats (the odd beats) are less weighted. A backbeat may go something like this: 1 2 3 4.A nice sample is: Fats Domino "Ain't That a Shame"

What is putting an accent in music called?

You may be thinking of syncopation, but it is a little unclear from the question. Syncopated rhythms are ones that have beats in unexpected places. In a standard 4/4 piece, the accents will usually be on the first and third beats, with the first beat having a more pronounced accent. In a 3/4 piece, the accent will usually be on the first beat. If you diverge from this very general rule and put strong accents on other beats, or on fractions of beats, you are creating syncopated rhythms, which are very exciting and enjoyable to play and to listen to.
