hey I'm not 100 percent sure but i think that accents are those things above a note- like this... > apart from they would be above a note on a stave or whatever the lines are called. anyway i think that they mean you punch the note out more and make it sound more important when you are playing an instrument
hope this could help I'm not entirely sure but it might be worth typing some of what i have said and see what comes up
hope you find what you are looking for!!! and also it makes notes harder and tells the person to hit the note hard
There are a couple of different types of accents, and a couple of different accent symbols. In general, an accent means to play that note a little stronger, either hit the key on the piano harder, or tongue a note harder on a wind instrument, or strike the note harder on a percussion instrument. The accent that looks like the greater than sign mentioned above is one type of accent. It means what I just said. There is also one that looks like ^ which many people called a rooftop, but it is actually a symbol that means sforzando, which is a very strong accent, although in jazz it generally means to play the note short also.

What was the influence of West African music on American music?
Many west Africans were captured and sold as slaves in the United States. Music sung by slaves became gospel music. The music of Africa was also polyrhythmic, meaning their rhythms were quite complex. European music, which America inherited, was very melodic, but had simple rhythyms. The combination of European melodic traditions with African polyrhythms resulted in ragtime music in the 1890s. This heavily syncopated music in turn led to jazz and all that followed. Most American rock and pop music today is heavily syncopated, thanks to that African influence. Pop music words have also been influenced by West Africa. For example, in Wolof (a major language in west Africa) cat or kaimeans music, and hepi means to be aware, to know. So in jazz, a great musician was a hep cat. It is likely that hep -> hip >- hip-hop and also hippie.
