would that crackling sound be considered a back fire? or just the sound the exhaust is making

i've determined that my exhaust won't sound that bad if i fix the backfire. any suggestions as to what ca cause that. i also made a EGR block off plate at the same time,could blocking that off cause backfire in some cases???
